Dr. Anthony Fauci walked back his comment that the US was no longer in the "Pandemic phase" of COVID-19 - the latest jumbled messaging from President Biden's chief medical adviser on the coronavirus.
Biden administration officials and Fauci were scrambling Wednesday to emphasize that the country is still in the midst of a pandemic and that emergency measures are still needed after Fauci told PBS the precise opposite.
Right now, in this country out of the pandemic phase," Fauci replied.
"We are in a different moment of the pandemic," Fauci told the Associated Press Wednesday.
"By no means does that mean the pandemic is over," Fauci said in his 180-degree turnabout.
"Well, what Dr. Fauci was saying is that we are in a different phase of this pandemic, and that's absolutely true," Psaki said, adding that the level of hospitalizations and deaths has come down.
Fauci had attended a Gridiron Club dinner on April 2, where few guests were masked.
