Dr. Anthony Fauci says an email he received last year from an executive at the US-based EcoHealth Alliance has been misconstrued and offered a hint of regret about a February 2020 email downplaying the need to wear a mask
Earlier this week, news outlets including CNN, BuzzFeed News and The Washington Post obtained thousands of emails Fauci sent and received since the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases became a household name early last year.
"In another email sent to Fauci on April 16, NIH director Francis Collins wrote"conspiracy theory gains momentum," a dismissive reference to the lab-leak hypothesis. But much of the email is redacted, and Fauci said he did not remember its substance."They only took about 10,000 emails from me, of course I remember. I remember all 10,000 of them. Give me a break," he said.
