But then again he and his colleagues in the public health field were supposed to be prepared for a pandemic. But they weren't. They failed to prepare, failed to get information about what was really happening in China, failed to shut off travel into the USA in a timely fashion, and failed to quarantine people with COVID-19. And as a result more Americans died in the past year than in the past 16 years from anything involving a firearm.
If you take out suicides and deaths caused by defensive use of firearms the mistakes of Dr. Fauci's colleagues and our politicians dealing with COVID-19 have killed more people in the last year than died from gun violence in the USA in the last 40 years.
Our so-called health experts certainly let us down.
The DC in CDC stands for Disease Control, and they were not prepared because of politics and drifting into other areas not related to Disease Control.
The electron microscope which is what you need to see and study these viruses was invented in the 1920s so the CDC had an advantage virologists didn't have in dealing with the 1918 flu or the earlier outbreaks of polio, and plenty of money today for research.-Tom
