Marco Rubio says Dr. Fauci LIED about masks, liberal twitter ERUPTS

Marco Rubio tweeted yesterday that Dr. Fauci lied about masks, and you’d have thought he took out his stick and pounded on a liberal hornet’s nest like a piñata:

What Rubio is referring to is that well known guidance from Fauci in March, where he said the American people didn’t need to be wearing masks:

As we all know Fauci has since changed his tune, which he claims was based on information about asymptomatic spread.

With regard to Fauci’s comments on herd immunity, he initially said that about 70% would need the vaccination in order for there to be herd immunity. He’s recently changed that to about 90%.

He’s also claimed that our ‘worst days’ with this COVID pandemic may still be yet to come:

Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday expressed concern that the worst may still come in America’s battle against Covid-19, agreeing with President-elect Joe Biden’s recent assessment that the “darkest days” in fighting the virus lie ahead.

“And the reason I’m concerned and my colleagues in public health are concerned also is that we very well might see a post-seasonal, in the sense of Christmas, New Year’s, surge, and, as I have described it, as a surge upon a surge, because, if you look at the slope, the incline of cases that we have experienced as we have gone into the late fall and soon-to-be-early winter, it is really quite troubling,” Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union.”

“We are really at a very critical point. … So I share the concern of President-elect Biden that as we get into the next few weeks, it might actually get worse.”

So now you can see why Rubio tweeted this, but he’s getting attacked liberals in the media as if he’s wrong:

 
What a bunch of schmucks! And the list goes on and on and on…

But not everyone is attacking him:

I’m not anti-mask and neither is Rubio. His point is what we’ve always known, that our ‘betters’ feel like they need to exaggerate or lie to us in order to trick us into doing the right thing, as if we’re too stupid to understand the truth. And the truth is that healthy people really don’t need to wear masks. If you aren’t sick, you can’t pass on any illness. 2+2=4. Also unless you have a really good N95 mask, what you have won’t protect you if someone sneezes near you or if coronavirus particles are floating in the air you just passed through. The particles are too small to be blocked by a mask.

But that said, I do wear one when I go out just in case I have something that I could transmit. I’m a little unclear on whether asymptomatic transmission has been debunked, so I don’t mind wearing one to keep my output contained. It also makes other people feel better and keeps potentially obnoxious people from yelling at me.
