Like it or not, Fauci's messaging on masks in March included statements that they were pointless and possibly even had unintended consequences (in addition to health care workers needing them).

Again, the science has evolved. Weaponizing imperfect statements from a time when less information was available and not allowing the science to improve is anti-science.
