Why would Trump use this buffoon as an expert?

quote:

Temperature checks are not reliable for COVID-19 screening, Dr. Anthony Fauci advised during a Facebook Live with Walter Reed Medical Center. "We have found at the NIH, that it is much, much better to just question people when they come in and save the time, because the temperatures are notoriously inaccurate, many times," he said.

Does he think that people are 100% truthful with those questions?

To be fair, he's probably right on this.

They check my 4 year-old's temp at daycare daily and it ranges from 96.8 to 99.3 any given day.

I'm pretty sure their thermometer is fricked up

Yeah, the honor system works much better.

Fauci is a complete clown.

I get that temp checks don't necessarily help, but questioning people saves time? Also, how accurate is questioning people?

We have a dozen of them. They come with a disclaimer that if the humidity is over 50% they may not be accurate

None of this shite is 100% effective. That doesn't mean we shouldn't do it.

I swear, Drs are just as bad as engineers. They can ONLY speak in technicalities.

No he's not. His job is to state the truth. What he's doing, is playing both sides. He starts to say one thing, so he can keep his job, but when he gets to the leftists, he says another thing. He thinks he's the Pope, and can speak the gospel as official head CDC nerd, but when not in an official capacity, can say whatever idiotic thing his little liberal heart desires.

This is the same asshat that refused to admit that protesting and rioting was not recommended under CDC guidelines.

Literally have the mothers ever in the last 100 years knew this.

That he apparently needed to "learn" it is spectacularly bad
