Fauci said his daughters refuse to visit for Thanksgiving, telling him: 'You're a young, vigorous guy, but you're 79 years old'

The nation's top infectious-disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, won't be spending Thanksgiving with his daughters this year, despite his and his wife's desires.

"I have three daughters in three disparate parts of the country ... who we don't see very often," Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said during a webinar hosted by American University's Kennedy Political Union Tuesday. "We would love for them to come home for Thanksgiving."

But the daughters, ages 28 to 34, didn't want to take the risk traveling would pose to their parents' health.

This is a set up in my eyes to cancel Thanksgiving around the country. Fauci is a such lock down jagoff that I am sure him and his daughters came up with the idea and made a article looking as if they are so concerned about their father.

As long as you wear a mask when you think the cameras are on you should be ok.

Once again Fauxi drags his daughters out into media view.
He apparently actually WANTS his family to get death threats from kooks.

Doesn’t sound like a very close family. There are likely personal issues if you dig deep enough.

Like Gavin Newsome says, put the mask on between bites.

Thanksgiving won’t be cancelled on the word of a shriveled-up prune like him. Not unless we LET it be cancelled.

Fight back. Doesn’t matter whether it’s in a big way or a small way. Tide is already beginning to turn, and even the smallest pushback actions will accumulate. That should be “heap big” encouraging right there. :-)

We really need to start culling these Baby Boomers from Government.

It seems EVERYONE is near 80 years old. I am all for the wisdom of our elders...but at the ages of these people they should have been retired for 10 years.

We need to a sweeping upgrade to our government—in all positions, in all parties, in all halls.

79 is too old to be running things. We are not a monarchy. No one can tell me that there are not people in their 60s and 50s who are as smart and talented as these people.

And yes, 79 is too old to be President as well. 75 is pushing it, in my opinion.

“””Like Gavin Newsome says, put the mask on between bites.””

Like putting the rubber on after you get laid.

What do you want to bet that he and his wife go to one of the daughters’ homes, and meet up with the whole family, out of the range of media?

Well, Dr. Fauci, we are going to have Thanksgiving. Christmas, too. Meanwhile, he is 79? He is not young. He might be vigorous FOR HIS AGE. It’s nice to flatter grandpa and all, but please.

The youngest Boomers are in their mid to late 50s.

What do you think is the “right” age for people to be in leadership positions?

Its just silly to mock Fauci for this. Its not likely that his daughters or their children will become seriously ill if they contract the COVID-19 virus. If his wife gets infected she might become quite ill but will probably recover. If a 79 year old male gets it its a crap shoot and statistically if those girls infect their father, he very well may die. His daughters reluctance to visit their parents is very understandable and should not be mocked. Yet if others wish to take that chance, visit elderly people and trust their luck, its their business.There is nothing wrong in taking sensible, non coerced measures to protect the vulnerable.

This could be just the excuse I need to not have to travel to the in-laws this holiday season.
