Dr Fauci says this video is a 'beautiful demonstration' of why face masks work

Virus expert Dr Anthony Fauci says a slow motion video of a British YouTube star simply speaking proves “beautifully” the need for masks during the pandemic.

Gavin Free from the Slo Mo Guys filmed himself counting to four then slowed it down spectacularly to show particles shooting from his mouth.

Dr Fauci praised the footage and told Mr Free it was a “graphically beautiful demonstration of the importance of wearing masks and face coverings.”

Dr Fauci also noted the difference in the flow of particles when Mr Free filmed himself counting while wearing a mask.
