Fauci commented in an interview with FOX News anchor Neil Cavuto, who asked "do you regret that it went too far, regardless of your original intentions ... especially for kids who couldn't go to school, except online, that they forever damaged?”

In his response, Fauci even suggested that he had tried to get kids back into schools, saying, “I don't think it's permanently damaged anybody.

I was also one of the people who said we have to do everything we can to get kids back to school."

Fauci is clearly preparing for the inevitable investigation that is coming his way.
