2 1/2 weeks.

I think this may be a record flip flop, even for Fauci.

Dr. Anthony Fauci said Thursday he's concerned about a possible fourth surge in COVID-19 cases as numbers tick up in some states and Europe, which the U.S. has traditionally trailed by about four weeks in its COVID trajectory.

Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious diseases expert, on Tuesday said he is confident the mass vaccination effort underway in the United States will prevent another "explosion" of coronavirus cases and a fourth deadly wave of the pandemic.

And the sick creep pretends he doesn't know why Texas has seen drops in Covid cases after ignoring his bogus restrictions.

March 18: I saw a lump on my dog's skin and I was concerned.

April 6: After consulting with a vet it turns out to be nothing.


Right-wing: Flip-flopper!!!!!!



It's obvious the right-wing can't logic.

You do realize that those statements were 2 1/2 weeks apart, right? The vaccine rollout (especially post FEMA response) has been going much faster than expected and the data is only available now.

Pretty sure he said THIS:


" if we pull back prematurely, we may trigger another surge."

He didn't say he's worried about a 4th surge. He said he's worried about a 4th surge IF WE PULL BACK NOW.


Then he said he's optimistic about the vaccine. As he's always said.


I see no flip-flopping, just poor editing.

Fauci is a politician and is not concerned about the science which is why he's free to say whatever his masters tell him to.

Really and what party does he run under and when was he last on the ballot? "His masters" huh, I guess Trump was putting the words in his mouth last year when all this started, as an 80 year old I am sure he is eligible to call it a day if he wants...

Fauci is a doctor and a scientist. He's not a politician that needs to worry about what people think of him. He looks at the data that is always changes and makes an assessment. People need to stop treating him like a politician.

Honestly, I'm surprised he stuck it out under Trump with the nonsense Trump was trying to pull.

CCP.

Fauci has:
- said we have little to fear from covid and not to adjust emigration
- then he said we could get this resolved in 2 weeks
- he initially said masks were not necessary
- then he said you should wear a mask
- then he said 2 masks
- then he said 3 masks
- then he said hooking up on Tinder was a okay in the middle of the pandemic

I only follow what he says now to see what the CCP is advocating currently.

In science, you should be prepared to modify your opinion based on credible new evidence. I know that's difficult for Conservatives to handle.
