He writes, “[l]et’s just assume that Fauci is correct about the flu, though there is plenty of controversy about his chosen figure of 0.1 percent. If he is right about, for the most affected demographic from Covid, he was off by two times. For youth, he was off by 3,333 times—an exaggeration of more than 300,000 percent!” Read the article at: https://brownstone.org/articles/fauci-fibbed-on-day-everything-changed/v
