Fauci 'respectfully disagrees' that masks are a 'choice': 'Infection is impacting everyone'
Fox News ^ | 8/1/21 | Peter Aitken

White House Chief Health Advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci has rejected the idea that face masks are a "personal choice" in the face of the increasingly severe delta variant of the coronavirus.

The United States on Thursday recorded almost 80,000 new COVID-19 cases – well below the January peak of nearly 300,000 new daily cases, but a stark rise from a month ago when daily cases were under 10,000.

While the number of those cases driven by the more transmissible delta variant is not clear, the CDC advised in early July that the variant was likely the dominant strain in the U.S. The CDC once again advised masks whenever individuals are inside shared spaces, but many people have resisted the call to wear masks, saying they have a right to choose whether to wear one.

"I respectfully disagree with them," Fauci said on ABC’s "This Week." "There are things that are individual responsibilities that one has, and there are things that have to do with you individually which also impact others, and the spread of infection that we’re seeing now … is impacting everyone in the country."

"Although you want to respect a person’s individual right, when you’re dealing with a public health situation, and we are in fact in a very serious public health challenge here … a person’s individual decision to not wear a mask not only impacts them … but you very well may infect another person

Fauci is the father of Covid.

This is like making Dr. Mengele the head of the CDC.

Maybe, just maybe Fauci will appear on a program that will ask some tough questions.

Dr. Fauci, if experimental vaccine is working, then those folks shouldn’t need mask, for those that choose to deal with Covid naturally and build up immunity, they don’t need a mask either. Besides, you have often said masks were ineffective. Shouldn’t we let people decide for themselves whether to wear a mask or not and when? And, as well, shouldn’t efforts be focused on people truly at risk, the really old folks and people with pre-conditions? Isn’t it a waste of resources and inefficient to apply the same prescription to everyone when most people have very little or no risk?

HIV/AIDS is an ongoing public health crisis and yet we’re glamorizing it. Along with mental illness with the so called transgender nonsense and pronoun nonsense.

The Biden administration position is to:
Chase down;
Hold down;
“Vaccinate”.

Not illegal aliens but American citizens.
