Dr. Anthony Fauci confessed in bombshell congressional testimony that he “made up” the government’s COVID rules, including the 6-foot social distancing measure and masking of children.

In January testimony released by the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic last week, Fauci admitted the 6 foot social distancing rule “sort of just appeared” and that he did not recall how it came about. 

“You know, I don’t recall. It sort of just appeared,” Fauci said, according to committee transcripts.

Additionally, Fauci admitted he didn’t remember reading anything to support that masking kids would prevent COVID.

“Do you recall reviewing any studies or data supporting masking for children?” he was asked. 

“I might have,” Fauci responded before adding, “but I don’t recall specifically that I did.”

“Have you followed any of those studies?” he was asked.

“No,” he replied. “But I believe that there are a lot of conflicting studies too, that there are those that say, yes, there is an impact, and there are those that say there’s not.”

“I still think that’s up in the air,” he added about whether masking kids was a provable way to prevent transmission.

A National Institutes of Health (NIH) study concluded the impact of mask use on students’ literacy and learning was “very negative.”

Another NIH study found impacts from social distancing caused “depression, generalized anxiety, acute stress, and intrusive thoughts.” 

Fauci is set to testify before Congress on Monday for the first time since stepping down as director of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), where he’s expected to answer for misleading Congress about the NIH’s involvement in gain-of-function research, the origins of COVID, and subsequently covering up that risky research happening in Wuhan, China.

“Our investigation has confirmed that [Fauci] did indeed lie, he committed a felony, he said that the NIH did not fund gain-of-function research, dangerous research in China. We now know that to be untrue. We know he committed a felony,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday.

“But what we’ve discovered now is that there was a massive coverup from the very beginning. There was a behind-the-scenes effort to change the opinion of people, many of the Fauci colleagues all believe that the virus did come from the lab.”

“Their opinions were all changed, but then all evidence was then covered up,” Sen. Paul continued. “They began using burner phones. They began using couriers. They said, ‘we can’t do things electronically. I can take things by hand to his house. It sounds more like the CIA than the NIH.”

NIH advisor Dr. David Morens testified before the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic last week to using a private email account and “backchannels” to help Fauci and the EcoHealth Alliance dodge Freedom of Information Act requests.

And earlier this month, NIH principal deputy director Lawrence Tabak admitted to Congress that taxpayers funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China in the months and years before the COVID-19 plandemic.
