On Monday, the nation’s top infectious disease official Dr. Anthony Fauci received a $1 million Israeli prize established by the late Italian Israeli philanthropist Dan David.
Fauci, a leading voice in President Donald Trump’s White House coronavirus task force, was honored with the Dan David Prize for his service in public health and “speaking truth to power” during pandemic, NPR reported Monday.
“As the COVID-19 pandemic unraveled, (Fauci) leveraged his considerable communication skills to address people gripped by fear and anxiety and worked relentlessly to inform individuals in the United States and elsewhere about the public health measures essential for containing the pandemic’s spread,” the award committee said in a statement. “In addition, he has been widely praised for his courage in speaking truth to power in a highly charged political environment.”
The statement on the award seems to come as a slight against Trump, whom Fauci has publicly criticized.
Speaking with The New York Times in January, Fauci said he sometimes had to contradict Trump in order to allegedly avoid the spread of disinformation.
“It isn’t like I took any pleasure in contradicting the president of the United States,” Fauci told the Times. “I have a great deal of respect for the office. But I made a decision that I just had to. Otherwise I would be compromising my own integrity, and be giving a false message to the world. If I didn’t speak up, it would be almost tacit approval that what he was saying was OK,” he said.
“That’s when I started to get into some trouble,” he continued. “The people around him, his inner circle, were quite upset that I would dare publicly contradict the president.”

“As the COVID-19 pandemic unraveled, (Fauci) leveraged his considerable communication skills to address people gripped by fear and anxiety and worked relentlessly to inform individuals in the United States and elsewhere about the public health measures essential for containing the pandemic’s spread,”
A Million dollars for UTTER and COMPLETE failure. This Ass Wipe praised Andrew Cuomo for LYING to the America and New Yorkers about the truth in NY. If Fauci had ANY shame he would decline. HE WON”T, of course.
$1M? Like he needs the money after all the dough he’s made in pimping vaccines. Fauci is a Liar protected by the Praetorian guard.
Wait...let me get my 4 masks and goggles.
Thats a great idea. Reward the lying putz, that’ll help!!/S
This is a bigger joke than the Nobel Prize has become.
The only thing that makes sense is that the mask manufacturers and/or the Moderna / Pfizer / Johnson & Johnson ‘vaccine’ makers and/or Bill Gates are using this prize to launder their payoffs to him.
Well, I suppose if it was narrowed down to Fauci or that WHO guy, they had to give it to Fauci.
I hope he uses it to buy himself plenty of triple-masks, because you can never be too careful!
So it is controlled by liberals as to who gets the prize.
Payola?
Is this how they do it, in addition to book deals?
🤷♀️
This humanoid killed millions with his anti Trump/HCQ screed.
Which truth was that?
Don’t wear a mask
Wear a mask
wear two masks
schools should be open
schools should remain closed
meet your family
no social gatherings
pandemic will end by early 2021
we may need to remain locked-down for years
