Fauci Says U.S. ‘Probably Would Still Have Polio’ If There Had Been As Much Misinformation As With Covid Vaccines Now
Forbes ^ | Jul 17, 2021 04:34pm EDT | Joe Walsh

Amid sagging Covid-19 vaccination rates and stubborn levels of vaccine hesitancy, Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN on Saturday the United States’ successful campaigns to eradicate smallpox and polio in the last century wouldn’t have succeeded if those vaccines were subject to the same level of misinformation that currently surrounds coronavirus vaccines.

In an interview with CNN, Fauci warned that some unvaccinated adults have been exposed to false information, are often skeptical of objective Covid-19 data and frequently justify their decision not to get vaccinated with “things that are really just not true.”

After anchor Jim Acosta compared the situation to polio, the government’s top infectious disease expert offered a dire warning: Fauci said efforts to eliminate smallpox (which was eradicated worldwide over 40 years ago) and polio (which has been eliminated in almost every country) would have faltered under the current climate of misinformation.

CRUCIAL QUOTE

“If we had had the pushback for vaccines the way we're seeing on certain media, I don't think it would've been possible at all to not only eradicate smallpox, we probably would still have smallpox,” Fauci told Acosta, “and we probably would still have polio in this country if we had the kind of false information that's being spread now.”

Dr Mengele JR fails to mention that the very first Polio vaccine killed many..MANY.

A group of dependent USAF kids in 1956 took a Salk vaccine that was rushed into production by the government. Several of them developed polio. I was lucky I didn’t. Someone needs to bust a cap into this arrogant bastard’s head as he’s done more damage to our health system than have the wild viruses. Simple research shows he’s a charlatan and been caught wildly speculating with poor facts.

“Everybody is exposed to false information 24/7 by likes of CNN.”

Toss in the CDC, Fauxcy, BiXiden and the Psocky-puppet, Ginger Goebbels.

Selected/edited excerpts from Karl Denninger’s anlaysis of this study:

The entire premise of all of the “mitigations” and demand for mass-vaccination relied on a lie; that this was a “novel” virus to which nobody had existing resistance.

We now know that’s false; 81% of the population in fact does have existing immunity and further, that immunity is strengthened, materially so, by natural infection.

From a public health perspective you want those people who are not going to be seriously harmed to get it naturally, not take a ******ned shot because it is that perfection of immunity that stops the disease from being of harm to the public on a durable basis.

The existing vaccines are worthless for building said perfected immunity since the data is that the nucleocapsid section, which the vaccines do not code, is where most of the pre-existing resistance against serious disease resides.

... had we produced inactivated vaccines without the spike protein being present they might have a similar risk profile to the seasonal flu shot instead of being 100 or more times as dangerous and at the same time they would have provided durable protection that all of the current shots do not because they omit said nucleocapsid sequences on purpose.

To continue said activity in the face of science documenting that you did it wrong goes beyond the realm of stupid and into the realm of criminal culpability for which no immunity should be recognized by anyone, ever, period.

And for the Love of God stop masking and restricting young and healthy people; the future of the world in terms of public health in fact requires that they be allowed to develop said natural, perfected immunity.

Preventing that by giving them a shot is felonious and anyone involved in it should be indicted, prosecuted and lose their life as the mass-murderers they will prove to be.

“The two vaccines have eliminated polio from most of the world,[3][4] and reduced the number of cases reported each year from an estimated 350,000 in 1988 to 33 in 2018.”

Tell me again, Dr. FraudXi, how fast was polio eliminated?
I’m pretty sure 1988 was 33 years after 1955 when the polio vaccine came out. We’ve had the covid vaccine for 8 months.

Polio vaccines were given on a sugar cube.

The fact that this nitwit won’t go on any right-leaning news outlets says one — or two — things…

Either he wants to only appear on channels that cater to his apocryphal fear porn, or —

He doesn’t really care if people on the right die, which kinda counter-argues his case for whining about those who won’t get vaccinated.

40% of covid “deaths” were diabetics. The average age of deaths is 80. About 90% of Americans over 65 are vaccinated. The delta variant has a death rate of 0.08%. About the same death rate as bee stings.

This SCAM is over.

Apple to oranges comparison.

Polio was way more deadly and did not have clearly defined demographic group that was vulnerable.

A look back at mass polio vaccinations of ‘50s, ‘60s

It was a different story in June 1959 when both commissioners issued a statement noting the “Area’s apathy toward polio shots held shame,” and sounded the alarm that many parents weren’t completing the three-shot inoculation, and some in the 1957-59 time-period had ignored the vaccine altogether. causing cases to rise. Those missing the shots were urged to get a “fourth shot,” or a booster shot, and urged adults up to age 40 to get the shot if “they are in close proximity to children” as the disease was passing forward from children to adults.

Our area was not unique in the lack of vaccinations by 1960, and there was concern that the Salk vaccination had perhaps a limited time period for coverage, and problems with the Cutter Laboratory in 1955 had scared some away from getting the vaccine.

Dr. Fauxi has no knowledge of history ... that he lived through.

I can't find the percentage of the total population vaxxed for polio between 1955 and 1963 but it is clear from historical references like this that it wasn't even close to the percentage of Americans vaxxed for covid in just 8 months.

Someone please punch this bass turd in the face!

Imagine the depth you have to sink in order to take the credibility of the Polio vaccine and try to graft it onto your for-profit experimental gene therapy.

Cupid Stunt! If there was a widely available drug already in use for 40 years that just happened to stop polio in its tracks ie. Ivermectin, polio would have never happened!

The CDC had this to say about the polio vaccine ... until they deleted this page in 2013.
