Fauci Tuesday: The US Is "Out of the Pandemic Phase"
Fauci Wednesday: "The Pandemic Phase Is Not Over"

At Zero Hedge.

Fauci claims to be the living avatar of science in the physical world, but watch how fast he completely reverses his "scientific" opinion after getting some political and popular pushback from his only remaining constituency, the Kovid Karens.

On Tuesday, he is emphatic -- "certain" -- that we are out of the pandemic phase:

"We are certainly right now in this country out of the pandemic phase," White House Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci remarked during an interview with PBS Newshour.

"Namely, we don't have 900,000 new infections a day and tens and tens and tens of thousands of hospitalizations and thousands of deaths. We are at a low level right now."

"So, if you're saying, are we out of the pandemic phase in this country, we are," he added.

After Karens (and probably, the teachers unions) shriek at him for taking away a key pillar of their religion, on Wednesday, this loathsome kobold is back out to say the pandemic is definitely still on:

"I want to clarify one thing. I probably should have said the 'acute component of the pandemic phase,' " Fauci said on National Public Radio on Wednesday, one day after he said the country was "out of the pandemic phase."

"I understand how that can lead to some misinterpretation," he added.

Yes, indeed. The statement "We are no longer in the pandemic phase" can in fact be twisted and contorted to be misunderstood to mean "we are no longer in the pandemic phase" by some troublemakers.

But they're obviously not scientists like you, lifelong government bureaucrat.

Just to give you a sense of the political freak-out Fauci was seeing over his comment, here's Eric Feigl-Ding, a self-styled "expert" who was put on MSNBC relentlessly to spread covid panic.

Fauci was losing his fanbois and fangirls, and couldn't have that.

And note there that Fauci says he will not be attending the White House Correspondents Dinner, which the Beltway crowd calls, with false modesty, "the Nerd Prom."

This will be a mask-free event, because Democrats want to reassure the country that covid is behind us (while continuing to also reassure the Kovid Karens that covid is very much with us still!!!).

Pete Bootyjudge, the Transportation Secretary who knows nothing about Transportation and still has not solved the shipping crisis, was caught completely unprepared for the quite-predictable question: Why is the "Nerd Prom" maskless, when the Biden Administration is suing airlines -- which are under your authority as Treasury Secretary -- to force passengers to wear them?

After freezing like an incompetent gay stuffed shirt in the headlights, he offered a "Because I say so" answer: Because airplanes and a ballroom are different.

Right. The airplanes have a very, very powerful ventilation HEPA filtration systems with disinfecting UV light technology which constantly cycles the air and exposes it to high powered ultraviolet light which kills all pathogens.

While ballrooms do not have such systems.

The fact that ballrooms do not have powerful HEPA ventilation/disinfecting systems should be known to "Mayor Pete." There was just another political event held in DC, in a ballroom. That event was the Gridiron Dinner, held just #twoweeks ago.

It was a covid superspreader event.

Can anyone remember the last air flight -- or even an air flight -- which is a known super-spreader? I know we've been wearing masks on them but, get this, masks do not stop the virus.

But airplanes' ventilation/disinfection systems do.

I can't think of a superspreader flight.

Here's the only google result that comes up for the search "flight superspreader," and this was during the very peak of India's covid outbreak.
