So Much For The Biden Administration's Claims That They Are Following The Science When It Comes To The Pandemic

President Biden spoke with reporters today outside The Nantucket Tap Room where he said he decided on the ban out of an abundance of caution. He is Nantucket celebrating Thanksgiving with his family  

Daily Mail: What's changed, Joe? Biden is accused of hypocrisy after halting flights from eight African nations to halt Omicron variant despite calling Trump 'xenophobic' for his Chinese and European travel bans in 2020 

* Fauci told CNN shortly before 8am on Friday that he thought a travel ban from southern Africa, in response to the new COVID strain, was unlikely 

* He said his team was going to discuss Omicron, which originated in Botswana, with South African scientists later in the morning 

* After their conversation, Fauci and other top scientists spoke to Joe Biden, who is currently on a Thanksgiving break with his family in Nantucket 

* At 2:30pm Biden announced that he had decided to bring in a travel ban, which affects eight countries and comes into effect on Monday 

Joe Biden is being accused of being a hypocrite after he announced a ban on travel from eight southern African countries in response to a new COVID variant despite previously claiming Trump's travel ban in 2020 was 'xenophobic.' 

On Friday Biden, who is in Nantucket for a Thanksgiving break with his family, said travel will be banned from South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Lesotho, Eswatini, Mozambique, and Malawi. 

U.S. citizens and green card holders will still be able to travel into the U.S. from the banned countries, but no one else will be allowed.
