Dr. Anthony Fauci believes the “lack of candor” and “lack of science” in the Trump administration’s Covid-19 response was “not helpful” and likely resulted in more deaths, the federal government’s top infectious disease expert told CNN Friday, as the Biden administration tries to mount an aggressive response to Covid-19 and move on from the “divisiveness” of the Trump White House’s approach.

Fauci has ZERO credibility.

NO, it didn’t.

What cost lives was people like cuomo and every other commie dictator governor who stuffed sick people in nursing homes, KNOWING that they would be infecting the most vulnerable.

They have blood on their hands they will have to answer to God for, and that’s just from this one incident. Not to mention all the abortions and other deaths from their *criminal justice reform* actions.

Reckless pronouncements like this provoke the body politic and are un-befitting of the position held by Dr. Fauci.

Biden flips on China travel ban [3 months later!]

Robert Romano, April 8, 2020

Former Vice President Joe Biden now says he supports travel bans to contain the Chinese coronavirus after all – after he previously called the China travel ban issued by President Donald Trump in late January “xenophobia.”

Deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield told CNN on April 3 that Biden “supports travel bans that are guided by medical experts, advocated by public health officials and backed by a full strategy,” adding, “Science supported this ban, therefore he did too.”

Was that before or after looking at a poll that said Trump would do a better job dealing with this crisis than Biden?

Asking for the potentially hundreds of thousands of American lives President Trump saved by acting decisively in the early days of this pandemic at a time Biden was hysterically complaining about “reactionary” travel restrictions.

And why wasn’t Biden the first one explaining his new position on this issue? Why tell us now? And why pretend he was in favor of it all along when he never supported it at the time? Why not just admit he was wrong?

Biden not only didn’t support the ban, he explicitly opposed it, repeatedly saying it was unscientific, even though it turns out it ultimately was backed up by the science. Which, you don’t need a medical degree to understand. It’s just common sense.

Travel restrictions are just another form of social distancing from those traveling from the hotspot at the time, which was China, to prevent the American people from coming into contact with others who had been exposed to the virus, just as not going to work if you’re sick might.

In the vernacular, the Fauci statement is “kissing ass”.

Isn't he the guy who first said not to wear masks, just wash your hands?

And isn't he the guy who has been in charge of developing an HIV vaccine since... Reagan?

Fauci: Trump’s Covid-19 Response ‘Very Likely Did’ Cost Lives

President Trump's response was based on "guidance" from YOU Fauci !!!

Fortunately, I get the strong impression you (Fauci) had little input into plans for Operation Warp Speed.

I did a google search the other day for early statements from Fauci and it appears that they have pushed many of his early statements off of the first few google pages.

Fauci contradicted himself monthly and it appears that the trend will continue. Even the liberal media of 10 years ago would be all over him for this, but the new media suppresses and ignores the incompetence. That is what it is.

We know for certain -

He believed his Chinese counterparts and dismissed the virus at the outset.

He was adamant (and correct by the way) that the science showed masks did not work to prevent the spread.

He was against the travel ban, but later admitted in a moment of clarity that it saved many lives.

He touted a short-term lockdown as you point out to “slow the spread.”

There are many others and eventually you will be able to add the HCQ treatment to the list as the science has been quite clear throughout the world that it works if used early. Fauci will admit this.

The guy is a chameleon who can change colors in a second.

It took the fool (Biden) more than 2-1/2 MONTHS to agree that Trump was right about the travel ban! Meanwhile, some 20,000 people PER DAY were coming in from communist China. If Biden were president at the time there would no doubt be MILLIONS more Americans dead from the virus.

Biden called Trump “xenophobic” and “racist” for shutting the door to China during the first few days of the virus that the Communist country KNOWINGLY let come to the United States and rest of the world resulting in over 200 THOUSAND lives lost in the U.S. alone, now 1 MILLION PLUS worldwide!

How China locked down internally for COVID-19, but pushed foreign travel

April 30, 2020, Economic Times

There is new evidence to show that China locked down all domestic traffic internally by end January 2020 but pushed to open foreign travel till end March.

Data from Tom Tom traffic index, a traffic location site that covers 416 cities across 57 countries show that as a result of this strategy, China, intentionally or otherwise, was able to lockdown its cities unknown to the world.

While this reduced the spread of the Corona virus within China, China’s aggressive foreign travel policy lead to a virus explosion worldwide. ...”

“In February [2020], after the U.S. imposed travel restrictions on China, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus publicly chastised countries for adopting the policy.”

Dr. Simone Gold has a different perspective about Dr. Fauci. He is responsible for the deaths of thousands along with Cuomo.

Fauci was only one member of the White House Task Force to make recommendations of pandemic matter, chaired by VP Pence. But we never hear from the other members, only Fauci.

He said the use of Hydroxychlorquine wasn’t effective when doctors around the world were treating patients with it to great success. What a liar. I lay Fauci at Pence’s feet. I’d say Fauci is the one responsible for the deaths.

No you fool....you screwed up!

Withholding info on the effectiveness of 3 different drugs that kill off the virus.

Ignoring the fact that a simple compound available for 10 cents a day will build up people's immune system and fight it off.....

Hundreds of thousands of lives could have been saved if you'd allowed the truth out there instead of standing around smirking and smiling.

And what about those five Democrat governors who murdered thousands of elderly folks by bringing positive infected people into those nursing homes...What the hell did you do about that?????

You are incompetent Fauci!
