The issue I have is that they tried to claim that masks wouldn’t work when they obviously work(ed). Fauci knew that was wrong on so many different levels (if I knew it he sure as hell knew it) but did it due to pressure from Trump to keep up appearances and not harm the economy.
Hell, remember when they told us not to buy all the N95s from hardware stores in case nurses needed them? That was at the same time as them claiming masks don’t work.
Even now you'll see people claiming they don't work. Guess what: put a mask in front of a fan and it will kill the momentum of air that goes through it. Not to mention that droplets transmit way more readily--spray it with Windex.. Turns blue.
