Why won’t this man just go away?
Former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), chief medical advisor to the president, and face of the U.S. disastrous COVID response Dr. Anthony Fauci still refuses to leave the stage. His latest paper, “HIV/AIDS and COVID-19: Shared Lessons from Two Pandemics,” published November 27 and written with researcher Gregory Folkers, is full of debunked claims and avoidance of his own accountability for the harmful mistakes made by the government when the pandemic hit.
It wasn’t me, the Fouch maintains—it was all Trump’s fault:
“With COVID-19, the role of political leadership at the highest level – or the lack thereof – was again shown to be critical,” the authors wrote. “As COVID-19 exploded globally and in the United States, President Donald Trump frequently minimized the seriousness of the pandemic, repeatedly claiming that COVID-19 would just ‘go away’ In the first full year of the pandemic (2020, the last year of his presidency) he failed to use his bully pulpit to encourage people to use available ‘low-tech’ tools such as masks/respirators, better ventilation, and physical distancing to reduce the risk of infection.
Right away, you see a problem: masks were proven largely ineffective by numerous studies. Meanwhile, the six feet they pushed on us as some sort of scientifically-based physical distancing was basically made up, Fauci admitted in June.
The Hero Who Wasn’t:
Fauci: I Made It All Up
REMEMBER: The Lockdowns Four Years Later, and How They Trampled on Our Liberties
White House COVID Czar: No Study Shows That Masks Are Effective Against the Virus
But Fauci wasn’t done spreading the BS:
“Trump also gave credence to unproven and potentially dangerous substances for COVID-19 prevention and treatment such as bleach injections, the antimalarial hydroxychloroquine and the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin. Many of his hundreds of communications during the COVID-19 pandemic were missed opportunities for political leadership in promoting policies and practices to mitigate the impact of a raging pandemic.” [Emphasis mine.]
The problem? The “Trump promoted bleach injections” garbage storyline has been debunked so many times it’s got bruises.
Fauci is an embarrassment. https://t.co/PISPM8V9P5

Fauci inexplicably decided to embarrass himself (for what I can only hope is) one last time by promoting the natural origin theory of the COVID virus, which even the Corrupt Media has mostly given up on after years of lying and censoring alternative viewpoints. I remember in the early days of the lockdowns thinking, there’s a huge virus lab in a Chinese city, and a killer new bug emerges there, and we’re not even supposed to ask if there’s a link? If a new “chocolate disease” suddenly breaks out in Hershey, Pennsylvania, wouldn’t it be natural to wonder if it had something to do with the, you know, huge chocolate factory there?
How stupid do they think we are?
The paper also says that “abundant evidence from top evolutionary virologists and leading scientists in other fields strongly suggests that the virus jumped species from an animal reservoir to humans in the Huanan market in Wuhan, China, and then spread throughout China and the rest of the world.”
C’mon, man, be like Biden and just fade away into the darkness.

As we wrap up Thanksgiving weekend, remember that this is the guy who said you should throw your family under the bus over a hastily-developed mRNA vaccine that doesn’t even prevent you from getting COVID:
Never forget that three years ago the sinister Dr. Fauci encouraged Americans to ban unvaccinated family members from Thanksgiving dinner. pic.twitter.com/QhrVoiQPF2

Just. Go. Away.
