DailyKenn.com — U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky) grilled infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci over mask mandates for people who have been vaccinated against coronavirus.
If vaccines are effective, Paul seemed reason, masks are redundant and just theater.
Paul is a physician who worked as a ophthalmologist prior to entering politics.
The exchange was made during a Senate hearing examining the nation’s coronavirus response efforts.

“You’ve been vaccinated and you parade around in two masks for show,” said Paul, who repeatedly interrupted Fauci. “There’s a virtually zero-percent chance you are going to get it.”
Fauci said he disagrees and said the existing antibodies are specific to a viral strain and that those protections diminish in variants, which have continued to emerge around the globe in recent months. Fauci said, in that context, continued mask use is appropriate.
“We’re not dealing with a static situation with the same virus,” said Fauci.
