How Dr. Fauci's Stubborness Costs Lives
American Thinker ^ | 08/11/2020 | Daniel John Sobieski

Posted on 08/11/2020 6:39:22 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Dr. Anthony Fauci, between magazine photo shoots and throwing the first pitch at baseball games, seems to have forgotten the cardinal rule of medicine – first, do no harm. By downplaying the effectiveness and highlighting the alleged dangers of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), it can be argued he has cost American lives, and will cost more, coming as he has between real doctors and real patients and real world experience with a drug that has been safely used to treat conditions like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis for six decades without any serious side effects.

Fauci is in love with clinical studies, which are fine to determine effectiveness and risk of vaccines, but pale in comparison to the results of actual use.

One can understand the opposition of Big Pharma and Democrats in Congress to HCQ use against the Wuhan Chinese virus. There’s no money in a commonly available drug that costs something like 50 cents a pill. And if its widespread use were as effective here as it has been worldwide, it destroys a key rationale for the lockdowns which give liberals unconstitutional power to control every aspect of our lives Worse yet, for some people, it might indeed save a great many American lives and that would improve public perception of President Donald J. Trump’s handling of the crisis and boost Trump’s reelection chances. Can’t have that, even if it costs American lives.

Dr. Fauci, who has not wasted this crisis and parlayed it into a media career, recently opined on one of the main HCQ opponents, telling the doctors at MSNBC:

White House coronavirus advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Wednesday that all the “valid” scientific data shows malaria drug hydroxychloroquine isn’t effective in treating the coronavirus, contradicting President Donald Trump’s opinion of the drug.

I’ve said it here before and I’ll keep on saying it: This mendacious little weasel needs to be thrown off a bridge. He has nearly single handily destroyed this nations economy.

By downplaying the effectiveness and highlighting the alleged dangers of hydroxychloroquine...


His perspective on HCQ is the same as my perspective on Chemotherapy for Cancer.

Dr. Fauci seems to be following the money trail instead of the patients he is responsible for. There are many documented positive results associated with HCQ and Zinc Sulfate but Dr. Fauci ignores them, Why????

People have to get it through their heads that the elite could not give a damn about our lives.

He considers the frontline experiences of thousands ( maybe more) doctors and patients, of entire nations, to be scientifically “ invalid”

History will judge him

At the risk of offending some of our more senior FReepers....

Fauci is 80 years old. Flexibility and adaptability of thought are NOT attributes you’ll typically find in most of us at that age.

He should have been put out to pasture a long time ago.

Fauci doesnt have any patients
I wonder if he ever did, or spent his entire career as a rainmaker for research grants

Stubbornness? He is motivated by greed and maybe even blackmail.

Fauci’s a left-leaning bureaucrat who just happens to have a doctor’s degree. Merely that and nothing more.

I think Fauci’s problem is he sees the World through his left eye. I think that’s the reason for all the confusion. The left eye is the eye after all that caused the creation of the statement “don’t believe your lyin’ eyes.”

First thing my father noticed about Dr. Fauci. A career bureaucrat who's 80 years old. That said, he should had retired around 10 years ago. Maybe teach at an University or work for a think tank now.

Also almost 30 years ago Fauci assured the public that AIDS would break out into the heterosexual community. It didn’t ! He said it to keep the R/D dollars flowing in it reasoned it probably wouldn’t if it remained know as a “niche demographic” disease.

I watched the AFLDS live and passed it around. Also some videos posted by Dr. Kelly Victory that were very informative. Her videos are on YouTube and BitChute. Here’s one of hers. Check it out.

It was not his stubbornness, it is his evilness. He is a charter member of the Hillary Clinton cabal. President Trump got his leg pulled and pulled hard on this one.

I’ve wondered if he ever treated patients face to face. If so, what was his success rate and were there any return customers or did they refer him to their friends?
