Anthony Fauci is feeling unleashed after President Biden’s inauguration, and kept up his string of appearances and interesting comments on Friday.<\/p>\n
In an appearance on CNN, the nation’s leading infectious diseases expert was directly asked whether a \u201clack of candor or facts\u201d contributed to the number of lives lost during the coronavirus pandemic over the past year.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know it very likely did,\u201d Fauci said. \u201cYou know I don\u2019t want that … to be a sound bite, but I think if you just look at that, you can see that when you\u2019re starting to go down paths that are not based on any science at all, that is not helpful at all, and particularly when you\u2019re in a situation of almost being in a crisis with the number of cases and hospitalizations and deaths that we have.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen you start talking about things that make no sense medically and no sense scientifically, that clearly is not helpful,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
