Good evening and welcome to Tucker Carlson tonight a funny thing about the coronavirus pandemic, its now clear in the earliest days of the pandemic, public hell officials in Washington were panicked at the time. As you remember, it was not clear what the mortality rate from the virus would turn out to be, but that was not their main concern. Officials in Washington were terrified for themselves. They were afraid of being exposed. They had used american tax dollars to fund reckless experiments in China that, in the end, likely created Covid 19. If that fact were to become public, it would be over, they would be shamed, ridiculed and possibly indicted. Their professional lives would be done, so they immediately set to work hiding it on a cover up last winter, a group of well known scientists publicly

dismissed the lab leaked theory in a letter to Lancet as absurd and categorically untrue, and yet, at the same time they wrote emails to each other conceding the virus did look engineered by human hands in a lab. Meanwhile, Tony Fauci worked on censorship. He made certain that the self appointed fact checkers, who control the flow of information in this country, shut down. Anyone who dared challenge the official story, which again we now know, was a lie. In the final days of the last administration State Department finally began a series investigation into the origins of Covid into what was happening at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but almost immediately after the election, Joe Biden shut it down. So in all, the lie went on unimpeded for a year and a half and were just learning now how deep it went. The informed consent action network, a group that advocates for transparency in vaccines, has just obtained thousands of new

emails to and from Tony Fauci, showing, among other things, that he knew his own directives often had no basis in science. For example, in February of last year, Fauci told us in public that the covid outbreak could go one of two ways: either a catastrophic pandemic thats. What we were all worried about- or it could very well turn out to be just an unusually bad season. Those were the options. If it evolves into a pandemic flu, it will be very much like a really bad flu season or a moderately bad pandemic season, so it could be a pandemic or just a bad flu which one would it turn out to be. At least one reporter asked him that in an email hes, a man called John, the chief medical correspondent at CBS News on February sixteen of last year he asked Fauci just how dangerous Covid 19 was. What were the numbers on it at that time, youll remember.

Fauci was telling the public not to wear masks. He was telling reporters. It was fine to attend political rallies. Public gatherings were okay. Fauci responded to him by outlining the conditions that would make him change his mind and demand lockdowns. The current mortality of Covid 19 is about two percent. However, there are several folds, more cases that are coming to the official attention of health authorities, in other words asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic infections. If you count these the case, fatality rate could drop to one percent or even half a percent or less. If thats the case, then this would be a very severe flu season, 2 to zero point. Four percent. Regular flu season is zero point. One percent were not sure where this is going to land, so its interesting to note that Tony Fauci used the term case fatality rate in the email. That means the number of deaths divided by confirmed, Covid 19 cases

confirmed, meaning people who have gone to the doctor usually died in a hospital, but then Fauci starts talking about the infection fatality rate that includes the total estimated amount of Covid 19 infections in the country, including ones with no symptoms, thats a far more meaningful number, particularly if youre trying to make health policy for the entire country. How many people who have the virus are dying from it? What is that number? What is the actual death rate from Covid at the high of the outbreak in late May? The cdcs best estimates of the fatality rate for people with Covid 19 symptoms, just the ones with symptoms, was zero point four percent. That estimate was contained in a CDC document called Covid 19 pandemic planning scenarios. It was intended for hospitals, it was not in a public press release. Jp Morgan, looked at the data and

came to the sail conclusion infection rates at the height of infection rates at the height of the pap. In other words, what we were experiencing was effectively a flu season at the worst, but thats, not what Fauci said under oath when he testified at a house. I dont have sight hearing in March of last year. In MA hearing, he claimed that the Covid 19 infection mortality rate was around one percent, which Fauci explained means its 10 times more lethal than the seasonal flu. Thats untrue, thats a lie. It turns out its hard to think of a more misleading use of numbers. In fact, survival rates for Covid 19 for anyone under the age of seventy turned out to be north of ninety nine point. Five percent Fauci knew that on March, sixteen someone laid a

question for Fauci Fox NEWS Anchor asked given the relative safety. Why not quarantine those whose immune systems are compromised stay tuned? So we d in the next few weeks, Fauci said: shut the country down. He encouraged closing schools, even though, as he wrote in one February, email children have a very low rate of infection. He knew that, but he pushed to close schools. Anyway, then he told everyone in the country to wear masks, even though he knew they didnt work. As he explained in another February, email were just now getting the typical mask you buy in the drugstore is not really effective in keeping out virus, which is small enough to pass through the material. Those masks dont work, but Fauci continued to demand that you wear those drugstore masks. He continued to demand that the lockdown continue. Why did he do that when he knew-

and we know for certain now, because we can prove with it the emails he knew. Those were not recommendations grounded in science, but he pushed them anyway. Why we cant say for certain we do know. The effect of these recommendations was a kind of medical marshal law. The country was so miserable and so off balance for so long that no one really thought to ask: where did this virus come from, but Fauci knew where it came from here. He is in twenty eighteen celebrating the end of the federal moratorium on american taxpayer. Funding of gain of function, research, NIH lifts, pause on gain of function. Research. Let me explains this a little, because whenever this comes out, there is always the pushing back and forth from the press like NIH, now is going to do dangerous research, no, as a matter of fact its exactly the opposite. So a framework has been now

established to guide funding decisions on proposed research that might be anticipated to create transfer or use enhanced potential pandemic pathogens. Im going to speak slowly now, for those of who you are not scientific literal for the dumb people in the audience, which is everyone, but me the NIH is not going to conduct dangerous experiments. There is a framework that was faucis promise and in fact it was half true. Nih did not conduct dangerous experiments. The NIH Tony Fauci paid for the Chinese to conduct dangerous experiments, and he did. There is no debate about that. Now it happened. So what are the consequences going to be? What happens if you do something like this and wreck? The country will fauci face any consequences. The White House answered that question today. Well, I think weve spoken to this pretty extensively from here. Let me just say on Dr Fauci and his emails hes also spoken to this many many times over the

last over the course of the last few days and well. Let him speak for himself and hes been an undeniable asset in our countrys pandemic response, but its obviously not that advantageous for me to relitigate the substance of emails from seventeen months ago laughter, he did speak for himself. Hes always got a place on the Wallace Show where they will tell him what a great man he is a great hero. He can speak for himself on MSNBC, so nothing is going to happen to Tony Fauci. He wont even lose his job ever as Biden explained today, Hell never be fired. Watch this. Can you imagine any circumstance where President Biden would ever fire him? No go ahead? Yes, yes, and not only is he never going to be fired, held to account for.
