Early on he didn't have the same information that he now has. Dr. Fauci has worked with numerous Presidents and never has he been hated on or needed personal security as he does now. So, yah, let's keep piling on.

Early on, he said the USA has nothing to worry about.


Early on, he said wearing a mask is not necessary.

I am surprised at all the idiots who post on here that find fault with those trying to do a good job with the info at hand. Having a battle of wits with them is like fighting with an unarmed man. No challenge. The best suggestion I heard came from a mask wearing believer that said, “Those of you who want to resist all the precautions should have a real nice photo taken of themselves so their kin might have something to remember them by in case their luck is also shortsighted.
Paying attention to political figures for information on a subject like this is also shortsighted. What happened to independent thinkers that can listen to men like Dr. Fauci and weigh the possibility that he is right or almost right most of the time.

All you need to do is research the good doctor's history and his very lucative connections to the pharmaceuticals industry. Why he is the virus spokesperson makes no sense.

As a sidenote... WHY does the Media typically call the variants of Covid-19:

B.1.1.7, a.k.a. the U.K. variant. This strain, which was first detected in England, has a large number of mutations. The virus has since been detected around the world, including in the U.S.

B.1.351, a.k.a. the South African variant. This variant has some mutations in common with B.1.1.7,The variant was first detected in South Africa and was reported in the U.S. at the end of January.

P.1, a.k.a. the Brazilian variant. This variant was first detected in four travelers from Brazil The variant was detected in the U.S. at the end of January.

BUT most of the Media, and Fauci NEVER calls Covid-19 "The CHINA virus".


hmmm, one person always referred to the China Virus as the China Virus. hmmm. And as I recall when he did, much of the Media condemend that. And China did (and still does) NOT admit Covid-19 BEGAN in Wuhan. WHO, after a year, sent a delegation there to investigate the origins. ONE YEAR AFTER!!! And China Communist Media still asserts that Covid-19 began elsewhere - even from the USA.

Perhaps some are afraid to lay blame to China??? Even after killing over 500K Americans? Are some covering for China???

Early on it was a hypothesis that the primary vector of infection would be surface contamination and not airborne transmission. When research found airborne transmission was the primary route of infection, public health recommendations were updated to reflect research findings and research continued along the lines that looked promising.
Science is a process of learning through the testing of hypothesis, it is not a crystal ball providing instant and infallible answers. Doctor Fauci is trying to provide the best current public health guidelines based on ongoing and evolving research of a new and novel virus that we have only been researching for months. He has decades of proven expertise in this, but good science takes time and is going to lead to needed changes in public health recommendations as the understanding of COVID19 grows and the virus mutates.
