Dr. Anthony Fauci is under fire, and that fire will only get hotter once word gets out about Just Facts.
Just Facts is a conservative think tank that was calling the shots in real-time.
On numerous occasions, Just Facts predicted disaster after disaster over Fauci’s recommendations.
Now Fauci is trying to defend his record, and he is lying his face off in the process.
I Didn’t Do That
Check out this segment on Fox News that touches on recent statements by Fauci…
That was a twist at best, and an outright lie at worst.
Fauci was leading the charge to shut down the economy, but now he is calling it a pause.
Regardless of how it is worded, Just Facts predicted this would be a disaster in real-time.
This was not a random statement, but one based on existing data that Fauci and his team ignored.
For instance, in March 2020, Just Facts wrote, “Without a vaccine, the only way people can become immune to Covid-19 is by catching it and recovering.
“This means that too much social distancing may cause more deaths because young, healthy people — who would otherwise catch the disease, recover quickly, and become firewalls — remain as potential carriers.”
The group cited a study from 2012 that warned against lockdowns.
In May 2020, the group posted, “anxiety from reactions to Covid-19 — such as business shutdowns, stay-at-home orders, media exaggerations, and legitimate concerns about the virus — will extinguish at least seven times more years of life than can possibly be saved by the lockdowns.”
Johns Hopkins completed a study in February that proved them right, reporting, “no evidence that lockdowns, school closures, border closures and limiting gatherings have had a noticeable effect on COVID-19 mortality.”
On the lockdown, James D. Agresti, the president and co-founder of Just Facts, stated, “This was utterly asinine.
“And you didn’t need to have that in hindsight.
“This was information, facts that were available from the start that these people botched.
“They just toss them away. They just ignored them.”
Once Republicans take back Congress, Dr. Fauci is going to be in the hot seat.
I would imagine information such as this from Just Facts will be at the top of the agenda to force Fauci to explain exactly why they recommended such measures when ample data proved every move they were making was the wrong move.
