Before her book was released, when Dr. Birx was going along with the natural origin story that was being pushed by the government, did you go around calling that "pure speculation?"

Dr. Fauci has recently been saying in interviews that the only masks that work are N95/KN95. When he was pushing cloth masks, did you go around calling that "pure speculation?"

Dr. Fauci has said, under oath, that when he was saying the vaccines would stop the spread he was just expressing a hope that would be the case. Dr. Birx says in her book she knew it would not stop the spread. When they were saying it would stop the spread, did you go around calling that "pure speculation?"

Why are replies like this so frustratingly common when I engage with the "covid conspiracy theorist" crowd? I asked for empirical evidence and you responded with a massive self-righteous rant calling me a hypocrite because you _think_ I hold certain views. So what if I'm a hyprocrite, does that mean they're right? No, it doesn't, so your comment is nothing more than a drawn-out ad hominem attack.
Dr. Birx describing the evolution of viruses and how Covid does not fit that mold is not "pure speculation." I cited her book, and as she's a world class expert in this field I don't know what more beyond that you would expect? Unless you are expecting the CCP to open their books, which is laughable.
Dr. Birx stood by nodding when Trump suggested people drink Chlorox. Let's not pretend like she has earned any trust.
