Dr. Fauci responds to 'mischievous' criticism after he was photographed with mask off at Nationals game

The infectious disease specialist says he was dehydrated

-------

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Friday that criticism of a photo in which he had his face mask partially down is "sort of mischievous."

In an interview on "America's Newsroom," Fauci told host John Roberts that he had been sitting next to his wife, Dr. Christine Grady, and a very close friend of his.

"I had my mask around my chin. I had taken it down. I was totally dehydrated and I was drinking water trying to rehydrate myself," he explained. "And, by the way, I was negative COVID literally the day before."

"So, I guess people want to make it a big event. I wear a mask all the time when I'm outside. To pull it down to take some sips of water and put it back up again -- I guess if people want to make something about that they can," he said. "But to me, I think that's just mischievous, John."

Critics took to Twitter to attack Fauci for the photo.

New York Magazine and Huffington Post contributing writer Yashar Ali reprimanded the doctor.

"Dr. Fauci should be setting a better example," he tweeted. Ali has over 662,000 followers on the social media platform.

The photo was taken by The Associated Press's Alex Brandon at Nationals Park.

That AP photographer must have followed Fauci around all night taking mask-down photos. Guess he’ll be doing weddings in Poughkeepsie from now on.

So he throws out the first pitch and leaves without watching the game.

Problem solved.

The good Dr. also neglected to inform us of the Cure.

The “good Dr.” might just be a mass murderer.

No, Fauci didn’t pull down his mask just to drink water. Plus, he didn’t social distance. Why is Fauci so defensive? Hypocrisy is a bad face. https://t.co/xRWTEAwPzv— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) July 24, 2020

Symbolism over substance. Now he's upset he got caught not social distancing and not wearing a mask while he's clearly not drinking water. He'll get a pass.

He also lied about masks to start with "for our own good" so he could save PPE for medical workers.

Some animals are more equal than others in his world.

I wear a mask at work, if shopping in public, if I have a guest in my home, but when I'm walking across the parking lot at work with no one within 100 feet of me I do not wear a mask. They are stifling in Georgia heat & humidity.

Fauci has ruined my faith in Doctors, forever.
If he can have the title and behave as he has, it is a horrible example of what the “MD” can mean...incompetence.
What a douchebag! If he can’t reach home plate with a pitch, he ain’t worth SHIT! I won’t threaten the little cry baby shit, he isn’t worth the effort.
