Fauci says "serious threats" have been made against him and his wife and daughters
CBS NEWS ^ | JULY 24, 2020 / 1:30 PM / | CAITLIN O'KANE

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.

Dr Doom sure loves CNN & MSMBC and they love him.

I sure wish President Trump wouldn’t have hired him! I wonder who recommended him?

Looks like he has 3 daughters and they range in age from about 34 to 28. They are biological children according to this.

What a coincidence. I've seen a side of GOVERNMENT that is a little bit disturbing.

Over the past couple of generations, increasingly more illegitimate children grew up to be narcissists who reject the social standards of our society and scoff at consequences: the mark of the criminal. And they don't stop, until they meet serious consequences.

Of course they have. People have lost their job, their house, their savings
all because of Fauci.

Life, in and of itself, is somewhat of a threatening situation. Learn to live with it.

Don't be such a drama queen Doc!

I quit watching professional football a few years ago and now I’m done with baseball as well. My Nats sticker has been removed from my back window.
