I read some of those early accounts and nurses sometimes dipped gauze masks in iodine before wearing. That might actually have done something antiviral in addition to staining their faces.

Is he ignorant? Or is he deceitful?

In the leaked emails he clearly says masks do nothing suggesting he was aware of the literature.

Something changed in those couple of months when he pivoted. And he wasn't;t alone. Here in Quebec, the health official in charge was saying all the right things that followed the established science. He was rational. And then poof. Pivot.

Why? The science didn't;t change in two months.

You could have ended the headline at "Ignorant."

Perhaps I'm being too harsh; he's very bright, but sly as a fox.

What disappoints and upsets me is I took the time to research masks back in 2020. One of the first things I focused on was history and came across not only this but Kellogg's study on masks. And it flowed from there. The body of evidence that masks were ineffective was indisputable and explains why masking was implemented during influenza seasons since it was the WEAKEST of the NPIs.

We were rational, sensible and followed the literature, data and science.

But 2020 science somehow ignored and obliterated the massive evidence. I see all these studies 'pro-maskers' desperately wanting to find any study that confirms their bias and they ALL fall short. Including this latest one now circulating. Nor is it lost on me such experts ignore other properly constructed studies like the RCT study in schools in Barcelona as well as the North Dakota and Tennessee studies that contradict the ones they do cherry-pick. NEVER MIND that Scandinavia NEVER masked their students.

My question is: What exactly happened to make masks a key NPI? Is it political? What did and does Fauci know? There seem to be a lot of holes here that needed to be filled.

Masks are clearly a favourite of behavioural scientists and other medical authoritarians as a tool of control so it appears to be a psychological 'fear' exercise more than anything.

It will be interesting what people do about masking this winter.

When your job depends on you not seeing history or facts...how many has he killed? He is the most meemed genocidal killer in history. I have a hard time with being 'rational' about dealing with a serial killer, and I think 'arguments of rationality' is part and parcel of why he has been allowed to continue killing for decades. He has been tolerated, and your assessment of him still reflects tolerance. Will you ever allow yourself to be passionate about the evil he represents?

Fauci throws a baseball ⚾️ pitch as well as he practices “science”. And the BB fans in the stadium were booing the little creep the whole time!!

I think Fauci knows what the true story is, he's just following his script for WEF
