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.

Did I miss Fubar’s public admonishment of hiphop artists concerts that resulted in the artists getting sick?
Does he care to comment on the upcoming Made In America Festival or the Governor’s Ball?

No?

hmmm

Hey Fauci, why don’t you go to Sturgis and tell the bikers there what you think?

DJT signed an Executive Order in 2018 that approved hanging or a firing squad for traitors. Just saying.

“”I’m very concerned, Chuck, that we’re going to see another surge related to that rally,” Fauci said.”

There was NO surge from Sturgis in 2020.

Fauci is a liar, but we all know that.

So is anyone else who says that Sturgis cause a surge.

I wouldn't put it past the Biden Regime to deliberately infect some of the attendees with a little help from Fauci and the CCP?

What Faucci should do is go to Sturgis, get up on stage and tell those dirty bikers just how ignorant, selfish, stupid, self centered, irresponsible, reckless, and inconsiderate he thinks they are. That’s all they need, a little guidance from a science pro.
