Dr. Fauci ADMITS Social Distancing Was NOT Based on Science, ‘Sort Of Just Appeared’

Another day, another ‘conspiracy theory’ proved correct.

During a closed-door meeting with the Committee on Coronavirus Pandemic.

Dr. Fauci admitted that social distancing had no backing in science; instead, it “sort of just appeared.”

The folks at Fox News have more on the story:

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the public face of the U.S. coronavirus pandemic response, told lawmakers this week that the social distancing recommendations forced on Americans “sort of just appeared” and were likely not based on scientific data.

Fauci, 83, made the startling revelation in a closed-door interview with the House Select Committee on Coronavirus Pandemic. He also testified that the lab leak hypothesis — which was often suppressed — was not a conspiracy theory and that the policies and mandates he promoted may increase vaccine hesitancy in the future, Committee Chair Brad Wenstrup, R-Ohio, wrote in a statement Wednesday.

Wenstrup’s committee has been investigating whether government officials at the time, including Fauci, worked to suppress questions about whether the pandemic was the result of a lab leak in Wuhan, China.

Republicans have accused those officials of pushing the natural origin theory in a bid to protect China.

Folks over on X had more to say:

Fauci just admitted they made up out of whole cloth the six feet rule which decimated schooling and caused disruption and untold costs throughout the world. https://t.co/c7RYqOad45

Wait what?!

So nearly 4 years after the fact, Fauci just admitted to Congress that the whole 6-feet social distancing idea wasn't based on science but "sort of just appeared."

Are you freaking kidding me!? The base incompetence of our federal government is truly vile.… pic.twitter.com/KoeyWAbyDu

DeSantis also had some choice words for Fauci:

The New York Post shares more:

“It never struck me that six feet was particularly sensical in the context of mitigation,” Dr. Ashish Jha, the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health who served as President Biden’s COVID response coordinator for 15 months, told the New York Times in March 2021.

“I wish the CDC would just come out and say this is not a major issue.”

Asked about a study in Massachusetts schools that found just three feet of distance between students resulted in “similar” COVID case rates, Fauci said the same month the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was “very carefully” reviewing the data and would “likely” update them.

If they were lying about the social distancing stuff, what else are they lying about?

When are they going to admit that the vaccine was NOT safe?

The evidence is clear, but they need to come clean.
