Dr. Anthony Fauci, the scientist largely responsible for much of the United States’ anti-Covid policies, said he wants Americans to be wearing masks – despite admitting that they didn’t do anything to stop the pandemic.
“I am concerned that people will not abide by recommendations,” Fauci said on CNN in a segment focused on the recent national rise in Covid cases.
As the top official in the federal government’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Fauci said that “universal wearing of masks is the most practical way to go,” a policy he still holds to be true.
CNN host Michael Smerconich asked Fauci about a wide-ranging study released in February which showed that masks had no effect on the spread of Covid.
“There’s still no evidence that masks are effective during a pandemic,” Smerconish quoted Tom Jefferson, the study’s lead author.
“There is just no evidence that they make any difference. Full stop.”
Fauci acknowledged that the masks didn’t make a difference, but insisted that people should still wear them.
“When you’re talking about the effect on the epidemic or the pandemic as a whole, the data are less strong,” Fauci said.
“But there are other studies, Michael, that show at an individual level, for individuals,” they might be protective.”

Who’s remembering all the bullies in town and online belittling all of us who didn’t want to wear masks and calling us murderers, fools etc
In actuality we were the ones who HAD looked at the available science and realized it did not make sense to wear masks. We knew we were being manipulated and programmed and controlled.
“But there are other studies, Michael, that show at an individual level, for individuals, they might be protective.”
I guess Fauci wants to run for vice president. His word salad is almost as good as Kamala’s.
First of all, Mr. Fauci, there are no such studies. If you cite them, you must tell us where they were reviewed by peers, and where they are published. But you can’t, because you are lying about their existence.
Secondly, if masks work for “individuals”, then that would show some percentage of effectiveness in the pandemic-wide studies. But they didn’t show any such thing, so what in heavens are you blabbing about? Just keep quiet, and stop making a fool of yourself.
I didn’t hear him say masks make no difference.
Did you?
I can believe the media still gives this lying mass-murderer interviews to spew his baloney especially now that he’s out of public office.
Attach a mask to Fauci’s face with stitches which can never be removed, and lock him up permanently with Hillary & Hunter.
Xtains have their trinity,
Vaxxers have theirs:
Vaccines
Masks
Lockdowns
You have to be saved by faith
It is insane that he did not admit that they do not work but you quote him as saying that.
Does he have stock also in mask manufacturers ?
What he seems to imply is that mask policies didn’t work because of people like you who didn’t follow the rules. For individuals who followed the rules, masks helped. So, you have hutzpah to blame others for you being danger to other people
@sariray,
your post here speaks for many many people…
You are so right well put!
I don’t know which idiot would get ‘up in arms’ to stand up for this murderer, so i am assuming that the comments here saying that he didn’t don’t know how to analyze and are sincerely thinking that he didn’t say it, so here i’ll explain:
when someone starts off with a very strong case study, quotes it and than asks the interviewee what he thinks about it, and the interviewee responds with the words “yes there is such a study and it is true, but there is another study that talks about on the individual level. what you are talking about is the epidemic as a whole.”, than that would constitute the exact accusation this article made. sorry.
If his brain was anything other than the evil puss filled compartment that it is, he would have stated that one over the two is correct and PROVEN why.
the issue is, this evil creature would never do that!
