Fauci’s mixed messages, inconsistencies about COVID-19 masks, vaccines and reopenings come under scrutiny

A look at Fauci's mixed messages on masks, vaccines and reopenings

By Tyler Olson | Fox News

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director Anthony Fauci's often inconsistent comments and mixed messages on the coronavirus pandemic are prompting renewed scrutiny as debate rages over reopening schools and businesses nearly a year after the lockdowns started.

"Dr. Fauci is a very good public-health official. His job is to advise policy makers and inform the public," Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said on Tuesday. "But his job is NOT to decide what we can do, where we can go or which places can open or close And his job is NOT to mislead or scare us into doing the 'right things.'"

"Why should we trust Fauci with a national plan? Back in March, Fauci famously told Americans, 'There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask,'" wrote David Harsanyi in the National Review. "(Fauci now says we should wear two masks. No thanks, Dad.)"

His usefulness to Hate-Trumpers is over. If we're "lucky" his BSing won't earn him a retirement income of being an "expert" for MSM skews shows.

His usefulness to Hate-Trumpers is over. If we're "lucky" his BSing won't earn him a retirement income of being an "expert" for MSM skews shows.

Everybody is tired of Fauci and his mask/lockdown fetish.
Liberals were fine with manipulating COVID with masks/lockdowns/school closings as long as it was hurting Trump.
But now that Trump is gone, even the Liberals are tired of it and want to move on.
However, Fauci will not let go. Now, some time in 2022 maybe things will get better? No. Not a chance.
In typical contradictory fashion, Fauci is saying that everyone should be vaccinated but that won't change a single thing.
In Fauci world, everything stays the same with or without a vaccine. So why bother with it?
COVID is his only claim to fame and fortune. And it will take Biden or someone to fire his troll butt before anything is going to change.
He is happy with the status quo. Fauci will never change anything. Until he is absolutely forced to, or until he is replaced, we will be dealing with his nonsense up to 2030.

In Report Affirming Nearly No Transmission In Schools, CDC Slips In Shocking Data About Asymptomatic Spread
If the contagiousness of people without symptoms does not drive the spread of SARS-COV-2, then restrictions like lockdowns and mask mandates on the general public don't make sense.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control slipped in a shocking piece of evidence in a recent report on low in-school COVID-19 transmission that severely undercuts the rationale for most COVID restrictions, including lockdowns.

The Jan. 29 report’s conclusion seems to fit the pro-mask narrative, of course: “Schools might be able to safely open with appropriate mitigation efforts [such as masking and not allowing student cohorts to mix] in place.” In the 17 rural Wisconsin schools surveyed, only seven cases were linked to in-school transmission out of 4,876 pupils, and no staff members were infected at school during the study period.

While the report spends ample time explaining the mitigation strategies employed in the schools and the high reported mask compliance (92%) among students, the authors later discuss something you probably have not seen in any of the mainstream media’s coverage of this report:

“Children might be more likely to be asymptomatic carriers of COVID-19 than are adults…This apparent lack of transmission [in schools] is consistent with recent research (5), which found an asymptomatic attack rate of only 0.7% within households and a lower rate of transmission from children than from adults. However, this study was unable to rule out asymptomatic transmission within the school setting because surveillance testing was not conducted” (emphasis added). ...
