The Fact Check Center of Taiwan clarified on June 20, 2024, a circulating claim that US epidemic expert Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted fabricating epidemic regulations, including social distancing and mask-wearing for children, based on an article from the UK's Daily Mail. Upon reviewing the complete dialogue records with Fauci during the US House COVID-19 panel, it was found that Fauci did not admit to fabricating epidemic regulations. While some controversial decisions were made during the initial phases of the pandemic, adjustments were continuously made based on evolving scientific evidence. The initial misjudgments, such as Fauci's earlier advice against mask-wearing due to limited information available at the time, were later rectified as more information was gathered.
