Fauci's Testimony: Unraveling COVID-19 Policies and Distancing Guidelines

Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted to lawmakers that the "six feet apart" social distancing recommendation likely lacked scientific basis and "sort of just appeared" without scientific input. The guidelines, which led to prolonged school closures, were disputed by research studies and other health officials. Fauci also acknowledged that vaccine mandates during the pandemic could increase vaccine hesitancy in the future. The House COVID panel's interview with Fauci revealed systemic failures in public health and raised concerns about the decision-making process during the pandemic.
