Trust science? Fauci's admission he misled public puts scrutiny on Biden alliance

Fauci's admission that he tailored his herd immunity threshold estimate to PR needs drew the ire of Jay Bhattacharya, professor of medicine at Stanford University. Bhattacharya is a co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration, which called for replacing "devastating" coronavirus lockdown policies with a new, less restrictive strategy.

"Dr. Fauci's apparent willingness to mislead the public in support of his preferred policy objective should disqualify him from providing public policy advice in any official capacity," Bhattacharya told Just the News on Monday. "Dr. Fauci's advice throughout the epidemic has ignored the science regarding the devastating physical and psychological harms of the lockdowns, to which he seems utterly blind. For a policy advisor, science should inform policy preference, not the other way around."

Dr. Harvey Risch, professor of epidemiology and public health at Yale University, said Monday that Fauci seems to have ignored the acquired immunity of the 20 million Americans who have tested positive for COVID-19, as well as the estimated 125 million Americans who have had the infection asymptomatically.

"I don't believe that Fauci has ever provided unvarnished, truthful advice," Risch told Just the News. "What he really meant is that 90% of the population needs to be immune for the pandemic to more-or-less go away completely. But this is not what he said."

"Also, you may notice that the WHO removed the fact that having the infection provides immunity," Risch continued, "now bizarrely stating that immunity only occurs from vaccination. You can guess why WHO (and Dr. Fauci) would manipulate public opinion against scientific knowledge."

Fauci's office at the National Institutes of Health did not respond to request for comment from Just the News.

With no vaccination, the pandemic "will be largely over by spring in the Upper Midwest and by summer in a large part of the U.S., with the states that have had the strongest lockdowns continuing their epidemics the longest, perhaps into the fall," Risch said. "Vaccination may help to make this earlier. The issue is mortality not case counts. Everyone is focused on case counts but that is wrong. Whether by natural immunity or vaccination, we need people to become immune, that is what ends the pandemic."

Fauci deliberately misled the public to make his pillow-talk buddy Coumo look good.

When Cuomo admitted he talked to Fauci every night (as if Fauci were his personal physician and while Cuomo was using witch-doctor remedies), Fauci’s credibility went into the outhouse.

Trust the science. How many times have we heard that? But will anyone learn from this? Like the global warming Nazis?

Obama, Fauci visiting NIH lab in 2014. Obama okayed NIH giving Wuhan---
a virology Lab to be the source of Covid-19 .....over $3 Million tax dollars.

Obama’s admin okayed Fauci sending $3.7M NIH tax dollars to Wuhan Lab

The BIGGER question is how much China sent back to obamba:
<><> donations to his tax-free foundation,
<><> donations to his final resting place (presidential library) in Chicago.....
<><> hefty fee for speaking gigs
<><> and so on and so forth.

===================================

REFERENCE---The Obama Foundation held its inaugural summit on October 31, 2017, in Chicago.

According to Obama, he intends for his foundation to be central to many of his post-presidential activities, which he sees as having the potential to be more consequential than his time in the White House.

On September 25, 2018, an IRS report revealed that the Foundation no longer identified any possible mega-donors. In 2018, contributions and in-kind gifts totaled $164.8 million, according to its filed annual report in June 2019— a drop of $67.8 million from the record $232.6 million in 2017.

The President of the Obama Foundation is Adewale Adeyemo, a Nigerian Economist ----one of Obama's former senior economic advisers-----and Deputy US National Security Adviser for International Economic Affairs.
