Actually this is an old report from 2008 by Fauci himself in studying the 1918 Spanish Flu. I was doing CLICKBAIT tactics (haha, sorry).
It has been determined that the pathogen itself – the flu – was not the cause of death in the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic, and that it is not evidential to prove that the flu was the primary cause. Fauci himself argued that it was in fact a secondary bacterial pneumonia infection that contributed to the actual deaths.
Furthermore we learn that wearing masks increases the chances of bacterial pneumonia infection, which increases the rate of death by the contamination from wearing masks and creating the environment for bacteria.
