A top Biden administration medical adviser said Tuesday he did not know why COVID-19 cases continue decreasing in Texas after he and others harshly criticized the state’s governor for rolling back a mask mandate last month.

“It can be confusing because you may see a lag and a delay, because often, you have to wait a few weeks before you see the effect of what you’re doing right now,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, one of President Joe Biden’s top COVID-19 advisers, said during an appearance on MSNBC.
