What's that? Makary is on record saying high quality masks reduce transmission???
Let's get a DIRECT QUOTE from Fox News:
He went on to say cloth masks weren't very effective and that he would have had different recommendations if he were in Fauci's position.
Now let's talk about "perpetration" of misinformation in the US government.
Let's get a DIRECT QUOTE from Fox News:
"Now, look, if you get two people in a room with high quality masks, sure, it can reduce the transmission. But the reality is this is a ubiquitous virus that was nearly inevitable. It is highly contagious. You can't wear a mask consistently that long and not get the virus," Makary said

@SomeMichGuy How much you wanna bet that Dr Makary wears a mask EVERY TIME he's doing surgery??
P.S. one other data point:
Yeah, instead, in the second half of 2021 we were hit by the Delta wave, which was deadlier than the original Covid variant.
Hindsight is 20-20, but prognostication is difficult, isn't it, Dr Makary??
P.S. one other data point:
In February [2021], Makary wrote an attention-grabbing op-ed in The Wall Street Journal titled “We’ll Have Herd Immunity by April.” Not everyone agreed with his prediction after the piece was published, with some seeing it as too aggressive at the time.

@ElwoodBlues Too bad the armchair virology brigade decided to hate herd immunity, etc.

@newjaninev2 Which has little to do with his testimony of accusing the US government of being the number one source of misinformation. What's your point? He made the point that they were the cause of people choosing to not get vaccinated. They caused all the mistrust.

@allygator18 Dr. Marr might have been in the group who made the modeling regarding the spread of aerosolized infectious agents.
