Seriously he had ONE job, and all these years to prepare for a pandemic, and he managed to make the nation be completely unprepared for it. It's like someone unqualified being hired as a McDonalds manager, and everything goes fine until the lunch rush. Then he freaks out from the sudden flood of people and causes the staff to become disorganized and nobody gets their chicken nuggies.
I was hoping the Feb 29 clip of Fauci downplaying shutterings and social distancing would’ve been included in yesterday’s montage. Fauci himself should’ve mentioned it. He needs to praise the President without praising his own “honesty” and opinions first. Wish more people were like Pence... the Vice Pres nails it every time he speaks.
Hospitals are failing and thousands and thousands of nurses and other healthcare workers are being laid off. It seems flattening the curve to keep the healthcare system from crashing is causing the healthcare system to crash.
We have known about the virus for 4 months. Do people expect the scientist working in this to know everything about it in the first month or two? Do people not think the more its studied the more you will know about it? This isn't the flu its a new virus, we will know more two months from now than we know today. Recommendations will change as more information is discovered, and thats a good thing.
It was March when this guy started voicing real concern. What's the point of having that position if they can't contemplate new and unique pandemics before it trashes our country?
You are asking for the impossible. They have developed a vaccine and got it to human trials in 65 days, thats literally the fastest its ever happened in human history.
No one outside of China knew this was a thing until 12/31, and the first couple months we were working off of unverified data China was providing. It wasn't until Italy got rocked that we started to get accurate data about this thing.
As far as having a plan for a pandemic, you can’t put the plan into action until you know how the virus is transmitted and how infectious it is. Thats why you saw the social distancing messages start coming out in March.
I know this unprecedented and there will always be a "should have, could have" people, and the response is also unprecedented/impressive. My problem is, how did he not have enough foresight to say in Feb. "this could be a problem, the information from China is sketchy, and we should take some extra precautions." I mean Tucker Carlson showed more concern than head of the NIAID. Just seems careless and nonchalant to say "miniscule risk" while China is welding people in their apartments.
Thank you for being the only reasonable person here. Fauci himself, whenever he makes these statements, unfortunately, has to preface them with "as of right now, with the information available..." because dipshits here would rather believe it's a deep state conspiracy instead of realizing it's impossible to have all the details from day 1, mistakes will be made along the way, and recommendations will be changed as more info comes out. Fauci has defended the president's response time and time again.
Sorry, it's man made and this cunt knew about it for well over 6 years at least, creating and studying these viruses were banned in the US in 2014 but these fuckers simply moved operations to Wuhan from North Carolina.
Good idea to view the history of Fauci's statements and compare single instances. You see Fauci no longer can uphold his elitist stand on know-it-all Corona problemsolving. Thus he has to bend the knee of face the consequence of losing face.
Its as if the left were trying to bring in as many cases as possible at first to seed our country with the infection. And then later push the implementation of lockdown.
I think the hate for fauci is too much lately. I think playing into trying to drive a wedge between trump and him is just playing into what the fake news wants. They want to say that trump didnt listen to the experts and thats what caused all of this. But, that's just a lie. Fauci himself said that whsn he recommended to trump to put restrictions in place trump did it right away. To the question he was asked he was saying sure looking back we could had put thoses restrictions in place sooner we could had reduced the spread more but the info we had from china and WHO at the time didnt suggest that this would be as bad as it is. The media like always just twist his words.
How is it Fauci's fault that the Clown-world News Network asked him a gotcha hypothetical and he answered it honestly? Fauci didn't say Trump did anything wrong; CNN and the rest of the fake news said that's what he said. Why are we letting fake news tell us what we think about Fauci?
What actually happened is that when Fauci was asked those early questions, he gave what was then the best response given the available information. When new information arrived he changed his opinion. Trump changed his opinion as new information arrived as well. As does any other rational thinker.
What was the new information? That even with most people (attempting to) follow slow-the-spread guidelines the virus was still spreading.
Allowing new verified information to sway your opinion is a core tenet of being MAGA, for me anyway. Admitting that if you had that information earlier you would have shut things down earlier and that hypothetical action would have saved lives is just being honest. Honest people have no trouble admitting that their previous decisions could have been better if they had better information. Honest people have no trouble admitting that the outcome would have been better had they made that choice.
Honest people also understand that hindsight is indeed 20/20. The better outcome was never an option in the real world. That's how the world works. You make the best decision you can and you take responsibility for the consequences of your actions. Conversely, you don't become a martyr for failing to choose an option that no rational person would have chosen at the time.
Making America Great Again means being honest about what is real and what is fake. It is fake news to think that Fauci, Trump, or anyone else on the planet had enough information to rationally recommend a shutdown prior to the time that they did actually recommend it.

Thank you, John Solomon, for being a reporter with principles.
Hospitals are failing and thousands and thousands of nurses and other healthcare workers are being laid off. It seems flattening the curve to keep the healthcare system from crashing is causing the healthcare system to crash.
Fauci admitted he messed up and was wrong yesterday. We have it on tape, along with what he said on tape prior to the shutdown.
He had to. He was about to be fired

IMHO people who are angry at Fauci for some reason are either concern trolls or VERY low IQ people.

4Chan provided me far more pertinent information and allowed me and my loved ones to prepare far before this cock sucker started making moves.
Worthless little worm has had decades to prepare for this and COMPLETELY FAILED. I can't believe he shows his face in public!?!?

The problem is Trump is listening to this creep too.much!
So he voted for it... before he voted against it?
