Back in February 2020: "There's no need to wear masks. Feel free to use the subway."

Quotes might be a bit off, but Fauci's words basically amounted to this

I've seen people try to write this off as "not wanting to start a panic" and "trying to secure masks for hospitals" but that's just a copout.
If they'd initiated a lockdown sooner millions of people wouldn't have died. They killed them on purpose because they were elderly and didn't serve the machine. Also millions of people wouldn't have gotten long-COVID with nearly as bad a viral load.

      They killed them on purpose

      is the only stretch. we should've been on at least cloth masks immediately, for what little difference those makes.

        "They killed them on propose" is the entire conspiracy. The rest is just arguing about exactly how or why.

          But what's the difference? Sure, it might not have been the intent of Fauci and the CDC to kill people, but they gave their recommendations knowing full well the consequences. They knew people would die and instead of protecting people they let them die.
