“If I get the #coronavirus, I’ll probably be OK.” said #MaxBrooks. “But if I give it to [my father, #MelBrooks], he could give it to #CarlReiner, who could give it to #DickVanDyke, & I’ve wiped out a whole generation of comedic legends."

Why #PanicMongers like #Newsom, #Cuomo, #Fauci, & false accuser #MaxBrooks are full of ignorant crap when they blame #Trump for delaying mitigation of the spread of #SARSCoV2 virus.

“The U.S. government relied on the Centers for Disease Control to produce a test; they failed ...
#CDC said they would handle it ...
Leaders at the CDC lied to both the HHS secretary and the president #Trump. And as a result the nation got weeks behind.”

Jan. 21, 2020 #Fauci: “This is not a major threat to the people of the United States and this is not something that the citizens of the United States should be worried about right now.” #DrFauci told Newsmax’s Greg Kelly on January 21.

Jan. 26, 2020 #Fauci: "The American people should not be worried or frightened by this. It's a very, very low risk to the U.S."

Feb. 17, 2020 #Fauci says skip the masks, don't ... avoid Chinese people or restaurants.
"there are varying degrees [of threat] from understandable to outlandish extrapolations of fear," #DrFauci said. usatoday.com/story/news/hea… #Maddow @maddow #COVID19

#Fauci: The only people who need masks are those who are infected to keep from exposing others.
"If you look at masks you buy in a drug store, the leakage around that doesn't do much to protect you."
"Now, in the U.S., there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to wear a mask."

#Fauci: "other coronaviruses such as #SARS & #MERS could not sustain person-to-person spread like the flu & such viruses “maybe never will.”
#WHO noted that no person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 had been reported outside of China.
#COVID19 is #SARS2

#Fauci also took care to praise the Chinese government for “being quite transparent” and said he was “impressed” with officials’ cooperation.

#Fauci said Feb. 18 that the “hypothetical danger of coronavirus” to America was “just minuscule” compared to the “real and present danger” of the seasonal flu.
Days later he changed his views and, in the process, was on his way to becoming a media star.

#Japan was one of the first countries outside of China hit by the #coronavirus and now it’s one of the least-affected among developed nations.
Japan has imposed no #lockdown. Life continues as normal for much of the population.
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Unlike China’s draconian isolation measures, mass quarantine in much of Europe, & big U.S. cities ordering people to shelter in place, #Japan has imposed no lockdown. Life continues as normal. Tokyo rush hour trains are packed & restaurants remain open.

#Fauci either doesn’t know what he’s talking about, or he doesn’t remember what he says on the record because he keeps contradicting himself & misleading his worshippers. He’s either a worse liar than #Trump — or he’s a #panicmonger fraud. threadreaderapp.com/thread/1246548… #FauciFraud
