Fauci tells Sturgis Motorcycle Rally attendees health crisis 'supersedes' need to do 'what you want to'

White House medical advisor and epidemiologist Dr. Anthony Fauci shared his concerns about South Dakota's upcoming Sturgis Motorcycle Rally on Sunday's "Meet the Press," subtly rebuking attendees as host Chuck Todd appeared to suggest it could be another coronavirus "super spreader" event.

"I'm very concerned, Chuck, that we're going to see another surge related to that rally," Fauci said.

While Fauci said it was "understandable" that people "want to do the kind of things they want to do," he suggested that rally goers think of the greater good that could come from staying home.

"There comes a time when you're dealing with a public health crisis, that could involve you, your family, and everyone else that something supersedes that need to do exactly what you want to do," Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, urged.

"You’re going to get to do that in the future, but let's get this pandemic under control before we start acting like nothing is going on," Fauci continued. "I mean, something bad is going on."

Social media users were none too happy with Fauci's advice.

"Yeah, no," tweeted RedState's Becca Lower. "We should not have unelected bureaucrats telling us what our rights are, period!"

Several other critics noted that while the media seemed preoccupied with Sturgis, they have largely ignored Chicago's Lollapalooza festival and President Obama's birthday celebration over the weekend, where he was seen dancing maskless in a crowded tent. The images surfaced after his office claimed that the party would be "scaled back" for close friends and family following backlash last week.

I recommend that Fauci go to Sturgis and tell them in person.

Oh I hope he does that would "make my day"

When you hear “for the greater good” from Leftists, you don’t have to guess at what their goal is.

Yeah, I heard about this the other day on Mark Levin's show. And not one peep from any pasty faced animal rights activists, isn't that special?

When they prop up Jen Psaki aka Peppermint Patty in front of that big White House emblem to announce the Bidet Administration will finish the southern border wall and direct the Border Patrol and ICE to seriously crack down on illegal immigration OUT OF AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION, then, MAYBE then I’ll believe some of the COVID hype. Until then Fauxchi can tell his jokes to other folks.

Since the flag crap years ago, now I see black bikers with rebel flags sewn on their vests.

You say sit down, we’ll stand up.

During the filming of The African Queen, drunken Bogart was the only person who didn’t get sick.

“No mention of the Obama superspreader event.”

Nor any mention of the southern border superspreader event being freely spread to all states!
