Weeks later, Fauci was still downplaying the risks, saying on Feb. 18 that the “hypothetical danger of coronavirus” to America was “just minuscule” compared to the “real and present danger” of the seasonal flu. Days later he finally changed his views and, in the process, was on his way to becoming a media star.
Not great considering he is supposed to be the best we got at this
Birx as well
And when did the WHO declare it a pandemic? Early March right?
I mean as an expert, yes he should’ve had this tone way back. But I didn’t know this was going to be serious until March 1st or 2nd. But yes he’s an expert he should’ve been on it earlier. But I do remember him saying stuff in February that was pretty serious. I think he was back and forth until he changed his tone early March.
After it was declared a pandemic though......who downplayed it still? That’s what was very dangerous. Never downplay a pandemic. Never would I do that. Only complete fucking morons downplay a pandemic bro.
