On March 9, Dr. Anthony Fauci told the country it was perfectly safe for healthy Americans to take a cruise and to hold campaign rallies.
Speaking at a White House briefing on March 9, Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, told the world - on March 9! - that “if you are a healthy young person, there is no reason if you want to go on a cruise ship, to not go on a cruise ship.”
He went on to say that “if you have … an individual who has an underlying condition, particularly an elderly person who has an underlying condition, I would recommend strongly that they do not go on a cruise ship.”
When asked if Trump should continue his campaign rallies, Fauci told the world, reassuringly: [emphasis added]
You know, I can’t comment on campaign rallies. It really depends. We are having as we all said - this is something in motion. This is an evolving thing. So I’m not sure what we’re going to be able to say at the time we’re going to have a campaign rally. If you’re talking about a campaign rally tomorrow, in a place where there is no community spread, I think the judgment to have it might be a good judgment. [But] if you want to talk about large gatherings in a place you have community spread, I think that’s a judgment call, and if someone decides they want to cancel it, I wouldn’t publicly criticize them.

Little f’n weasel
If we had a free press his face would be rubbed in this every day. Spit.
South by Southwest had already been cancelled by March 6th.
I guess Fauci didn’t read the newspapers.
Who would have thought that a person can slither out of the SWAMP every day in a white physician’s smock and not show pieces of slime dripping off of it!
Speaking of cruises, my sister just re-negotiated her July cruise. They got a hugely upgraded cabin and a $2,000 refund.
Oh, dear! Oh, my goodness! He’s replaced his cavalier attiude of Jan-Early March with this draconian one from the ides of March and going foward!
Probably 99% of us saw Fauci say we should go about our lives normally. This is not news for us. The media has been trying to create strife in the coronavirus task force for months.
Man - if that isn’t double talk, I’ve never heard double talk..He’s saying - “don’t pin me down” so I’ll throw all the equivcaters in there that I can..in other words:
“”use ambiguous language so as to conceal the truth or avoid committing oneself.””
“”So I’m not sure what we’re going to be able to say at the time we’re going to have a campaign rally.

I swear I spell checked!!!
“equivcaters” = equivocaters
