Yup - cloth masks 😷 and typical over the counter masks are a joke in stopping COVID. If government really cared they would be sending N95’s to all homes… instead of just more and more stimulus checks…

Actually he said: "The typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out virus, which is small enough to pass through material. It might, however, provide some slight benefit in keep out gross droplets if someone coughs or sneezes on you."

Prior to Fauci wrote: "Masks are really for infected people to prevent them from spreading infection to people who are not infected rather than protecting uninfected people from acquiring infection." newsweek.com/fauci-said-mask…

Look at all the sensitive covid heroes here. Y'all are so cute. Just going to back up this guy with a study that corroborates Fauci's quote. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2753…

Something every Respiratory Therapist, pulmonologist, immunologist, infection control, and damn near anyone else in healthcare knew. So, why did we have some of these people on liberal tv acting like the masks actually did something? Why the perpetual lie?

I would love to come to Congress to tell you all about it.
Replying to @Jim_Jordan
That's true. That's why we wear masks to protect each other. To help you understand⬇️
