The mixed messaging before #TeamMask #Masks4All really set us back if we truly believe in the efficacy masks doing their jobs. The difference between us and Asian countries. Just saying. The Surgeon General has expressed regret and since urged the public to mask or cover up. 44?
AHEM!! Nobody warned anyone to cover their faces. Another too big to fail scenario with major consequences. https://www.businessinsider.com/fauci-mask-advice-was-because-doctors-shortages-from-the-start-2020-6
Covering your face will block 99% of the droplets from your mouth and countries with wide spread mask use have 10 times lower the transmission rate than those who don't. #COVID19 #Masks4All https://kcbsradio.radio.com/articles/answering-your-questions-about-face-masks

Fauci again admits he was wrong initially on masks as was mostly everyone. He doesn't want a national lockdown to get in the way of re-opening the economy. He trusts vaccine experts & FDA, (hey Kamala) & even is voting in person. POTUS still attacks him. https://thehill.com/changing-america/well-being/prevention-cures/521680-fauci-covid-19-outbreaks-would-have-to-get?amp&__twitter_impression=true
"First of all, the country is fatigued with restrictions. So we wanna use public health measures not to get in the way of opening the economy, but to being a safe gateway to opening the economy," Fauci said.
"So instead of having an opposition, open up the economy, get jobs back, or shut down. No. Put 'shut down' away and say, 'We're gonna use public health measures to help us safely get to where we want to go.'"
Still, he admits he was wrong in his initial decision to discourage widespread mask-wearing.
"When you find out you're wrong, it's a manifestation of your honesty to say, 'Hey, I was wrong. I did subsequent experiments and now it's this way,'" he said.

Public confidence in a forthcoming vaccine, however, is relatively low, with only just more than half of the population willing to take the first round of a low-cost vaccine when it becomes available.
Fauci says that the decision as to whether or not to take it will, personally, come down to the data.
"I'm gonna look at the data upon which the FDA makes that decision. I trust the permanent professionals in the FDA," he said.

"The director, the commissioner of the FDA, has been very public that he will not let politics interfere. We have an advisory committee to the FDA who are made up of independent people who I trust.
Put all those things together, if the final outcome is that the FDA approves it, I will take it."
