Fox News host Tucker Carlson blasted Dr. Anthony Fauci Tuesday evening for “lying about COVID” and failing to answer questions about how the virus originated.
“When the COVID pandemic began in early 2020, everyone wanted to be Tony Fauci. We did and had him on the show, actually, and then he started lying in ways so obvious that you could not ignore it, you began asking what is this about? The guy in charge of the COVID response is lying about COVID, why?” Carlson said. “He lied about herd immunity, then he lied about masks, then he repeatedly lied about vaccines. You can’t lie if you’re a public health official, but he kept doing it. Today, Tony Fauci, who is now 81, held his last press conference and appropriately enough, he decided to tell one final lie about masks.”
Carlson pointed out that Fauci, who announced he will step down as President Biden's chief medical adviser, said the unvaccinated are the “real danger” regarding a winter spike. Fauci's net value went up by $5 million during the pandemic.

“This is insane, this is not science. In fact, all of the science shows just the opposite. It’s more risky for most people to get the vaccine than to get COVID at this point. It’s not speculation, data from a bunch of countries, UK and Israel included, prove that. But Fauci doesn’t want us to know that? Remember, this is the guy who funded bat coronavirus experiments in Wuhan which at this point seem pretty likely to be responsible for the pandemic,” Carlson said.
Republicans on the United States Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) launched an investigation into if COVID-19 began due to a lab leak.
“It’s unbelievable, and the rest of the supine press corps sit there with their weird little masks on and say nothing,” Carlson said. “It’s left to some guy from Africa to point out the obvious, which is, what? This is the most legitimate question there is. Where did COVID come from and what are you doing to find out? Shut up.”
“This can’t go on forever,” Carlson said.
