kavita patel, white house health policy director during the obama administration. she's a clinical physician, a brookingse should all get a booster now? >> yeah, lawrence, and especially, i think, as you heard dr. fauci say, six months from your primary series we're seeing cases across the country double digit increases, and a shift where more people who are vaccinated, not many, but more than before are coming through with breakthrough infections and the ones ending up in the hospital tend to be people who had qualified for a booster and didn't get one, and i think it's because of that ambiguity and the confusion. >> so how did we get to the ambiguity, and then it seems like what dr. fauci was saying is as of tomorrow, the ambiguity is going to be over. >> yeah, i mean, it's been months in the making. look, first we had the biden administration talk about boosters being available for everyone in september. then you had the fda, and cdc advisory committees meet putting the brakes on it, it's not there, it's there for select populations, over 65, certain people with chronic conditions, but not everyone, a

house was the opposite of that. when i talk from the people on the task force doctor brooks, found chien redfield, these are people withyears of government bureaucrat positions. from what i saw scientist do what i did they bring in the scientific publication to the meeting. they cite the data and go through and criticize or critique the studies. they make opinions from good studies. they critique studies that were done well. what i saw was nothing like that, it was really tabulation of cases from anywhere. and no response to anyone, based on any kind of scientific, it was an outlier sort of thing. it was stunning they advise the lockdowns and they got the lockdown said they wanted. they were implemented throughout almost the entire nation for a year and they failed to stop the spread of the infection and failed to stop people from dying and they destroyed millions of people. what is worse as they may go on about these bureaucrats, they were threatened by other input, this is not the behavior of a scientist, as you alluded to science is nothing without being challenged into debate the science of it rather than proclaim
