Original Note:
At the start of the pandemic, Dr. Fauci or the NIH/CDC never explicitly stated "masks didn't work". They stated they weren't necessary at the time, mostly due to the lack of supply and prioritizing the limited PPE for medical staff. 1. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/06/03/fact-check-missing-context-claim-mask-emails-fauci/7531267002/ 2. https://www.factcheck.org/2020/05/outdated-fauci-video-on-face-masks-shared-out-of-context/
