Fauci Downplays Lower Coronavirus Death Rate as ‘False Narrative’
Breitbart ^ | 7 Jul 2020 | NATE CHURCH

Posted on 07/07/2020 3:04:59 PM PDT by conservative98

Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Tuesday that taking comfort in news of declining coronavirus death rates is a”false narrative” encouraging “complacency.”

Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci downplayed the apparent low death rate of the novel coronavirus pandemic in a (internet streamed) press conference with Democrat Alabama Senator Doug Jones on Tuesday. He also emphasized that there was still a “window of opportunity” for the state to respond proactively to the outbreak.

“You’re not there yet, so you have an opportunity, a window to get your arms around this and to prevent it from getting worse,” Dr. Fauci said. “It’s not to the point where it’s out of hand and you know, very difficult to control. So you have a window of opportunity here, that as a state, you should not, you should, you know, take advantage of that window of opportunity.”

Fauci further characterized taking comfort in news about declining mortality as an empty comfort, claiming, “It’s a false narrative to take comfort in a lower rate of death. There’s so many other things that are very dangerous and bad about this virus,” and warning the public not to “get yourself into false complacency.”

Today’s deaths are more than twice yesterday’s. Not good.

Don’t you think it would be fantastic for Trump to bring on Senator Steve Jensen (MN) as the lead MD for Covid? If you haven’t listened to him, do yourself a favor. Don’t fire Farci, just drown him out with a REAL expert

....

That is a fantastic idea!

The President should drag the lying old Demagogic Party shill and onto the White House lawn, and beat him to death with a hammer.

Or at least demote him.

Wow. I wonder how awful and terrible it will be when the number of daily deaths reaches 0?

I’m also starting to wonder if he’s shorting stocks. So many of his doom and gloom pronouncements seem to come during the same day or maybe (like today) the day after markets move up strongly.

Then he steps up, makes his comments which help trash the momentum of the markets and drives prices down.

To think - this guy actually went to my high school in Manhattan. I think he graduated the year I was born. And get this - he was the captain of the BASKETBALL TEAM!!

Well, we still had pathetic teams when I played on them, so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

“Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci ......in a press conference with Democrat Alabama Senator Doug Jones”

Now there’s a couple of real winners I’d take advise from.

Guess Fauci doesn’t agree with the models above even though Leavitt has been right since March....unlike Fauci

Fauci is trying to talk governors into locking down their people and destroying the economy over a disease that is 99.9% curable, and slowing down in its effect

“Tony certainly needs to be sent down to the minors or made available for assignment.”


No. What need to happen is for Tony to be indicted for Crimes Against Humanity.

First witness to testify: 30 year career scientist Dr. Judy Mikovits who will testify to Tony’s role in silencing her when she discovered the animal retrovirus vaccine contamination which has been shown to be the causative agent in all manner of serious human illness.

The Administrative State does not attack their own, they attack Trump. Fauci is safer than a statue of Lenin.

Worldometer reports 992 deaths today. Hopefully this increase is just because some numbers were not counted on the weekend.
