Yeah, and humanity used to believe in miasma theory too. Fauci being wrong and then correcting himself later is a good thing, actually.

- philjohn 5y agoAnd to be fair - even that quote "It doesn't provide the perfect protection people think it does" and "people touch the masks". The science on masks points to them helping when used correctly, but many people use them incorrectly - not following the proper procedure for putting them on, taking them off, reuse and disposal.
- seoulmetro 5y agoNot comparable. If they believed in miasma whilst also eating out of the trash it may make sense. The same way believing masks don't work but then covering your mouth to cough does... It's not a good thing since he wasn't correcting himself, he was misinforming others whilst knowing what he was saying wasn't accurate. I don't really care, since most of the quote is good information and the rest of the quote was made to serve a political purpose.
- waych 5y agoFauci provably lied to congress about gain of function research funding. Is that a "good thing" too?
