But that requires naunced understanding.

Good point. At that specific time, there may well have been a need to prioritize getting masks to HCWs. It isn't the "gotcha" that conservatives and contrarians think it is.

What do you think would have happened if he said...please do not hoard masks. Healthcare workers need them.

He said they were not needed when I public. He put people’s lives at risk. This is not okay no matter how much you try to justify it. People died because he stated this and caused healthcare workers to need more masks. He never, ever should have stayed this as factual. He was in a position that put people’s trust in him.

Are you kidding? Did you think he was somehow omniscient? That he knew about asymptomatic spread? That he wasn't just doing his best with the information he had?

It's as if you cannot accept anything could be merely wrong - instead, it had to have been intended maliciously. It's ludicrous. I don't know how you get through life with so much self-righteous anger.

I'm sure he knew about asymptomatic spread. Do you think this guy is a professional or not?

Are you aware that different diseases spread through different means?

Which of them require wiping groceries dowh with clorox to avoid? You are really gullible if you think experts were seriously baffled here.

I don't fault him for what he said during the pandemic itself. It was unknown waters and I think he was trying to get through it. Actually, I don't fault Trump, either (not a Trumper in the slightest). I think they had the country's best interests in mind.

However, he had a direct role in starting up that lab in China. And, no, I have no idea if that's where COVID originated. But, a lot of lies and obfuscation stemmed from there.

PP again. What I'm trying to say is hindsight is 20/20.

It’s called research instead of search because they are always testing and investigating it again. No one knew what they didn’t know. Information wasn’t hidden as much as it was always changing depending on new information.

Also, public health is very sensitive as to what you can ask or enforce at any time. People get angry, or frightened, refuse compliance and the like. It’s a balance and a very challenging one.
