Resorting to just declaring “for the official record” that Rand “doesn’t know what he’s talking about” is very weak. He’s just calling to authority, that he’s a PhD so “be quiet”.
The problem he has is that we have the definitions of “gain of function” and you funded Wuhan to engage in this type of research when you shouldn’t have been.
He can mince words all he wants but ultimately it has nothing to do with whether Rand is an expert or not, he is citing PhD’s that are.
Fauci’s crap started before Wuhan.
Fauci was playing semantic games with the definition of “gain of function” and his argument about Covid-19 not being known to be one of the viruses the Wuhan lab created was a red herring.
No one needs to be a virologist to see the word games he was playing or to understand why someone plays word games like that.
Rand is an eye doctor.
I trust his opinion more than fakey.
