Wow, someone used correct data at the time to make a meme you conveniently blocked?

Remember this? You later mea culpa'd it, but that was pushing fake news, unlike this guy's meme.

Oh, I didn’t cover up anything important. You don’t need a crystal ball to imagine what it said. If you really care I’ll look it up again.

This was “correct” data at the time only if you excuse the fact it totally ignored what all the experts said was going to happen very quickly with the numbers, which was the entire basis for the “panic,” and which did end up happening.

80,000 deaths and counting. Nowhere even close to over. How’s this meme gonna look in another couple months?

Much as you’d like to memory-hole this right-wing nonsense, Pepperidge Farms remembers.

No! DON'T MEMORYHOLE ONE GUY'S MEME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is why you're ridiculous. One guy isn't the entire rightwing and left wingers also pushed back and criticized Trump for doing too much, too soon, so it goes both ways.

I know y’all love to paint Fauci as a big-government Leftist, but he’s a Trump official and has been this entire crisis.

He has been consistently more on-the-ball than Trump himself, but no, he’s not above criticism.

And making him a fall guy over these comments or his more recent blunt warnings about re-opening too early during his Senate testimony, as may happen sooner or later, is not a get-out-of-jail-free card for the Trump Administration.

The interesting thing to find out will be how much Fauci’s early comments downplaying the threat were influenced by the same people-pleasing mindset that everyone in Trump’s inner circle has to stoop to in order to hold Trump’s confidence and attention.

Historians and investigative journalists will be piecing the multiple system failures in this response together for decades to come.

Here's the original meme.

Yeah, actually there was considerable panic about H1N1. But nothing like today. Because H1N1 wasn't as bad.

And if conservatives were paying attention to what the experts were saying 3 months ago, they would have known that.
