Yep right at the beginning of the "testing".

Quote:•Masks. The only people who need masks are those who are already infected to keep from exposing others. The masks sold at drugstores aren't even good enough to truly protect anyone, Fauci said.

"If you look at the masks that you buy in a drug store, the leakage around that doesn't really do much to protect you," he said. "People start saying, 'Should I start wearing a mask?' Now, in the United States, there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to wear a mask."

Then, like many things, there was new information and the recommendations changed.  Why that is so hard for some people is understandable when you realize they form a single idea and refuse any new information.
