Fauci says Sen. Rand Paul has repeatedly misconstrued facts about the pandemic

Republican Sen. Rand Paul challenged Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, over whether coronavirus restrictions are effective in curbing the spread of the disease.
Fauci was quick to respond to Paul’s comparison of the US and Sweden’s response to curbing the virus, and Paul's suggestion that their death rate is lower because they had fewer restrictions. Fauci said it was inappropriate to compare the US and Sweden, and defended the US response.
“I don’t regret saying that the only way we could have really stopped the explosion of infection, was by essentially, when I say shutting down, I mean essentially having the physical separation and kind of recommendations that we made,” Fauci said.
The Kentucky lawmaker then went on to claim that Fauci was a “big fan of Cuomo and the shutdown in New York.”
