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.

It was hard coded in the first amendment: the right to peacably assemble. It’s been in place about 2 centuries before he came along.

Fauxi has only one thing to say that I’m interested in hearing: “I’m sorry that I lied to you all and I resign effective immediately”

I don’t believe Fauci has the guts to TELL anything to the Sturgis folks face to face.

When you go to the Chip or the Full Throttle Saloon in Sturgis be surethane to drink lots of alcohol.

Alcohol kills the covid germ.

Party on

"But Obama's party is FINE."

Right...

And Lollipalooza too (massive concert).

It would be comical if it weren't so totalitarian scary.

I’m sure bikers are breathlessly waiting to hear what the murdering gnome has to say. Fauci should appear there in person to spew his BS. Id’d love to see how that goes.

yeah, I don't think that Sturgis attendees give a F@@% about what Fauci has to say on the matter. I'd like to see a face off between Fauci and Jessi James Dupree on the matter.

Im pretty certain that about three of the 100,000 plus attendees listened to Fauci, then two of them slapped the third for making them waste 45 seconds.....
