Would you have done anything differently? Oh, I would have done everything differently. We were checking. Nobody at airports. We had no test. We had no quarantine facilities. We couldn't get masks.

I think Fauci did the best with what he knew at the time, but he came across as going, I know everything. (32:28–32:34)
