Fauci endorses free masks for all Americanspublished at 16:25 British Summer Time 30 June 2020
Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders asks if the US government should be producing high quality masks to be distributed for free to all Americans.
Dr Fauci, the top US disease expert, says yes.
"I think masks are extremely important," he says.
"There's no doubt that wearing masks protects you and gets you to be protected," Fauci continues.
"Anything that furthers the use of masks, whether it's giving out masks or any other method, that is something I am thoroughly in favour of," he says.
