Your hero the Great Fauchino went on the Today Show on March 13, 2020 and told people to live their lives as normal. But to give Fauchino credit, after this revelation by Woodward he said Trump did not "downplay" the virus (again, your hero's own words).

The only person who cost hundreds of thousands of lives was your hero for wrongly saying HCQ+ was ineffective. Oh, and by the way, you'll love this. I actually have a New York Times reporter now actively looking into Dr. Risch's research.

Bob Woodward...as for Dr. Tony Fauci, in March of 2020 the only Corona Virus reference was SARS-CoV (1), which had no transmission by non-symptomatic infected persons, therefore masks were not required...advisable, but no need to rush out and get high quality N95/KN95 masks, which were is very low supply, even for doctors and nurses...thus he didn't lie...in fact he NEVER lied about anything...otherwise, his own Infectious Disease Specialists would have called him out, instead of later praising him as a "Rock Star" for all the effort he put forth to help America get through the pandemic...and still keep Trump from firing him ;-).

Fauci lied repeatedly about funding gain of function research. And he himself said he lied about masks and the percentage of people necessary for vaccination. Later he admitted there was no science behind recommending masking (multiple studies prior to Covid all concluded they were ineffective).

Everyone has to wear an N95 mask properly at all times. But even then they're not all that effective as research has proven. But carry on with your vaunted Massachusetts "study" comparing two school districts to 78, which is mathematically unsound. And keep ignoring the experiences of Savannah schools where mandatory masking made no difference, and also the entire state of South Carolina where mandatory masking made no difference, either.
