Pop singer Gloria Estefan should have a bone to pick with Dr. Anthony Fauci. In March 2021, she teamed up with him to encourage the Hispanic community to get vaccinated against COVID-19. During the interview, Estefan disclosed that she had recovered from COVID-19 and was working with her doctor to monitor her immune status. Her doctor had told her that she did not need the vaccine because she still had immunity according to regular testing. The exchange is pretty astonishing.
Fauci: How long did they ask you to wait?Estefan: “They told me three months, but I know for a fact I still have immunity because I’ve gotten regularly tested.”
Fauci: “I would not wait any longer, Gloria. I believe the advantage of getting the boost from the vaccine far outweighs the theoretical possibility that your own existing immunity is going to interfere. We know that the immunity that’s induced by the vaccine in general is more potent than the immunity that’s induced by infection.”
At the time, there were zero studies on relative immunity between recovered and vaccinated immunity. The United States had also experienced a significant wave of infections from late December through January without substantial reports of reinfection among those who recovered earlier in the pandemic.
Further, in October 2020, Dr. Fauci conceded that President Trump had immunity to protect against reinfection after recovering from COVID-19. In an interview with Jake Tapper, Fauci said, “The problem with the word immune is it means different things to different individuals, Jake. If he means that he’s been infected and having been infected and recovered that he will not get infected again, that’s true for a limited period of time. But what we do not know is how long that protection lasts. ”

Eight months after infection, most people who have recovered still have enough immune cells to fend off the virus and prevent illness, the new data show. A slow rate of decline in the short term suggests, happily, that these cells may persist in the body for a very, very long time to come.
That research was peer-reviewed and published in Science in February 2021, before Fauci spoke with Estefan. You would think America’s “top infectious disease expert” would be on top of such findings. The conclusion was also consistent with previous research on SARS-CoV-1. Recovered patients demonstrated reactive immunity to the virus 17 years after infection. For those of you keeping score at home, the two SARS viruses are 79% similar and use the same human receptor, ACE-2, to access human cells for replication.
So Fauci recommended that Estefan get vaccinated against the advice of her physician. He encouraged the singer to get a vaccine she didn’t need and may never have needed. Studies from the Cleveland Clinic and Israel confirm this. Neither found a statistically significant difference between the reinfection rates among recovered patients and those who recovered and received vaccinations. A study from Emory University measured the immune system cells eight months after infections, providing a scientific basis for the findings in the observational studies.
She was pretty hot back before the turn of the century
She put on some weight. I just wish she couda been the one to sing at Havana’s first free festival concert once the regime goes down. Rats will keep it propped up and they won’t revolt. Lefty now.
Isn’t she a big democrat voter?
At the time, there were zero studies on relative immunity between recovered and vaccinated immunity.

I have advice for Dr. Fauxi. My heart says, “GFYAD”, but my spirit says, “Repent, confess to those you LIED TO (in other words, THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD) and to the LORD, and ask for His forgiveness and His Salvation!”
As it sits, you little troll, Fauxi, it would appear that you eternity is will be hot and full of sulphurous odours. Of course, at 80 years of age, perhaps the Lord has ‘turned you over to your sins’.
I’ve always been into rock but “Words get in the way” is just a beautiful song. And she was cute.
