A claim that 'masks' don't protect generally does imply N95 masks don't protect specifically.
Did you not see the last video? Why are you trying to amend history to suit your political views here? Fauci repeatedly discouraged mask use because he said people would infect themselves by touching their faces to adjust the mask. He said this over and over, and that applies to N95 as much as any other mask.
Frankly due to the amount of intentional suppression of these videos it's hard to find them. You would think there would be plenty of documentation of all the news around covid, especially the early days, but lots of tv appearances have fallen down the memory hole.
It doesn't not matter, yes it was hard to buy an N95 mask at the time, but many, many people have N100 or P100 masks for work. As a hobby I spray paint sometimes, so I have multiple P100 masks, which far exceed anything necessary to prevent infection. The truth is people should have been encouraged to wear masks, and educated on which masks are effective and which were not. Fauci was wrong about masks early on, and as usual for him he lied about it later (hilariously that he lied is his official story, he lied to protect mask supplies, so he would rather you think he lied previously rather than was incompetent) to try to avoid looking like he made a mistake.
