Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for more than three decades, has grappled with several public health crises, including the AIDS epidemic and now, COVID-19. In an interview with CNN's David Axelrod, Fauci said the magnitude of criticism he is receiving now is different than in the past, and that he and his family have been seriously threatened.
On "The Axe Files" podcast, Axelrod asked Fauci about how he's become a target during the pandemic, as people who have suffered economic hardships have become angry.
"I've seen a side of society that I guess is understandable, but it's a little bit disturbing," Fauci said. "You know, back in the days of HIV when I was being criticized with some hate mail, it was more, you know, people calling me a gay-lover and 'What the hell are you wasting a lot of time on that?'"
Fauci said that criticism was pushed "aside as stupid people saying stupid things."
"It's really a magnitude different now because of the anger," Fauci said. "As much as people inappropriately, I think, make me somewhat of a hero and I'm not a hero, I'm just doing my job there are people who get really angry at thinking I'm interfering with their life because I'm pushing a public-health agenda," he continued.
Fauci said the amount of hate mail and serious threats are "not good."
"It's tough," he said. "Serious threats against me, against my wife, against my daughters. I mean, really? Is this the United States of America?" Fauci said.

Excellent rant! Just about covers everything.
A bunch of us have watching this clown and asking the same question, "Is this the United States of America?" That is rich coming from a corrupt bureaucrat with a huge conflict of interest on his Remdesivir recommendation over HCL. As Kid Shelleen would say, "You ought to see it from MY side."
Be a shame if people online revealed that you’ve been snitching out masked Antifa people to the authorities...
Didn’t Fauci call it an “inconvenience” when he said everybody stay home and they lost their jobs and the economy crashed and people lost their lives and committed suicide because he was “following the science” except he wasn’t following the science. So as far as his death threats go, I’ll just say sorry for the “inconvenience.”
No he's not. He's part of the evil #RESIST clan.
"Tony Fauci snitches on Antifa!"
Someone probably gave him a tongue lashing for destroying their business and he’s spinning it as a threat.
SERIOUSLY????
I’m convinced now that Biden has thrown in with the Biden campagin.
Good
that *Fauci* has thrown in with the Biden campaign.
And the heat on both sides of the grill are getting turned up.
Good grief. You could not have made your point without dropping an F bomb?
Grow up.
stop lying for your personal gain and political gain then, or how about step down after 30 years of nothing from you.
