REVEALED: Dr. Anthony Fauci confesses he ‘made up’ covid rules including 6 feet social distancing and masking kids
Shocking testimony from Dr. Anthony Fauci shows he invented the six-foot social distancing rule and other measures to “protect” Americans from Covid.
Republicans released the full transcript of their January interview with Fauci, just days before his long-awaited public testimony on Monday.
They plan to question him about the Covid restrictions he has introduced, which he admitted have not done much to slow the ‘spread’ of the virus.
Children’s learning loss and social setbacks are well documented, with one National Institute of Health (NIH) study The impact of mask use on students’ literacy and learning was “very negative.”
And the effects of social distancing caused “depression, generalized anxiety, acute stress, and intrusive thoughts,” another NIH study found it.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, claimed the six-foot distancing rule “just appeared” and said he “may have” reviewed studies on masking children, but “that’s still in the agenda. sky’
Fauci spoke to counsel on behalf of the committee earlier this year, telling Republicans that the six-foot distancing rule “just appeared” and that he could not remember how it came about.
“You know, I can’t remember. It just seemed that way,” he said, according to committee transcripts, when asked how the rule came about.
He added that he was “not aware of any studies” supporting social distancing, and admitted such studies would be “very difficult” to do.
In addition to not recalling any evidence supporting social distancing, Fauci also told the committee’s counsel that he did not recall reading anything that masking children would prevent COVID.
“Do you recall looking at any studies or data that support masking for children?” he was asked.
“I don’t remember,” Dr. Anthony Fauci told the committee when pressed where the six-foot social distancing rule came from. “It just seemed that way.”
When Fauci pushed for forced masking of children, he couldn’t remember if he had read anything to support that it would prevent disease
“Maybe so,” he replied before adding, “but I don’t specifically remember doing that.”
The pandemic patriarch also testified that in retrospect he had not followed any research into the consequences that forced mask-wearing had on children, of which there have been many.
And his response was a tongue-in-cheek, COVID-esque pun: “I still think this is up in the air,” Fauci said about whether masking children was a good way to prevent transmission.
Furthermore, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) told counsel that he believes the lab leak theory – the idea that COVID started at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) – is a real “possibility.”
“I think people have turned it into conspiracy aspects,” he said, adding “it could be a lab leak.”
“So I think this isn’t necessarily a conspiracy theory per se, but some people are inferring things from it that are quite crazy.”
His admission that COVID may have started at WIV comes four years after he supported the publication of an article that threw cold water on the lab leak theory, called the “Proximal Origin” article.

The coronavirus committee has spent months discovering the origins of the virus that upended so many lives and resulted in the deaths of 6 million people worldwide.
Recently, they discovered that Fauci’s former top aide, Dr. David Morens, routinely performed work on his personal email account and deleted files to circumvent government transparency laws under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
His disregard for FOIA requests was so blatant that he bragged in emails to colleagues that he was learning how to make official correspondence “disappear” and that he would delete things he “didn’t want to see in the New York Times.”
Morens’ emails discovered by the committee further showed that he bragged about having a “secret back channel” to Fauci where he could communicate clandestinely with the former NIAID director.
That revelation so thoroughly shocked committee chairman Brad Wenstrup, R-Ohio, that he demanded Fauci turn over his personal email and phone information to the investigating agency.
Also shocking is Fauci’s admission to the committee in January that he “never” looks at the grants he has signed, some of which total millions of taxpayer dollars.
“You know, technically I sign off on every council, but I don’t see the grants and what they are. I never look at the subsidies that are out there,” he told the committee’s counsel.
He further said he was “not confident” that foreign labs that receive U.S. grants, such as the WIV — which was studying coronaviruses using U.S. taxpayer money at the time the pandemic began — operate to the same standards as U.S. labs.
Fauci also said the money he handed out as part of the NIAID grant process has not undergone national security reviews.

In addition, the former director said he was not aware of any conflicts of interest among his staff, including his senior advisor Dr. Morens.
However, Morens testified before the committee on May 22 that he helped his “best friend” EcoHealth Alliance chairman Dr. Peter Daszak with the work of his nonprofit.
Morens said he helped edit press releases for EcoHealth and worked to restore grant funding for the nonprofit after its funding ended in the wake of the 2020 COVID outbreak.
NIH, where Morens works, funded Daszak’s EcoHealth to the tune of millions of dollars.
Still, Fauci said he was not aware that Morens had any conflicts of interest.
The committee will certainly try to clarify the “secret back channel” of Fauci and Moren’s communications during the June 3 hearing.
