Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci clashed over whether people need to continue wearing masks due to the CCP virus.

“You’re telling everyone to wear a mask,” Paul, who is a medical doctor, told Fauci. “If we’re not spreading the infection, isn’t it just theater? You have the vaccine and you’re wearing two masks, isn’t that theater?”
