Anthony Fauci was hospitalized this month after contracting West Nile virus.
Fauci, 83, the country’s former COVID-19 czar, as hospitalized for six days and is now home where he is recuperating from the mosquito-borne disease, The Washington Post reported.
“A full recovery is expected,” his spokesperson said, according to the Washington Post.
The virus typically spreads when Culex pipiens, the common Northern house mosquito, bite infected birds and then bite people and other creatures, according to the CDC. West Nile virus is the leading cause of mosquito-borne disease in the country, the agency said.
The virus sent 1,800 to the hospital last year in the U.S., and was responsible for 182 deaths, according to the Centers for Disease Control. There were 216 confirmed cases in 2024, the agency said.
Symptoms may include headache, fever, aches, vomiting and other symptoms, but an estimated 80% of those who have the virus experience no symptoms at all. There are no known vaccines or treatments.

The very definition of irony.
“ people and other creatures”
Correct. This creature is not welcome as a “people”.
The latest in the “we need mail in ballots for everyone!” Scam.
Gee, that’s too bad.
In other news, scientists are puzzled by the turbo cancer blot clot death of a mosquito.
If you only knew what viruses you’ve had, you’d be shocked.
What you don’t know, won’t scare you.
^ “blood” clot ^
I bet some Remdisivir would help him recover
I feel bad for the mosquito. He probably sucked some that mRna blood and died as a result.
I don’t believe anything connected to Dr Fauci. So maybe he did have the West Nile virus. Or maybe he’s just involved in another scam.
Working on something for the election was he ?
Perhaps a ventilator.
What do you want to bet that his people were doing gain of function research, and he got too close?
And invert him and put him on oxygen.
So, mosquitoes are the danger now. Where is the vaccine?! Come on, get on the ball and roll out those jabs, lock us down, and mail out those ballots! How can we have democracy if we’re all dead?!
/s
That seems unusual, how did he get exposed to that. Most the people who get sick from this are homeless people with very weak immune systems.
...and this clown was hired to keep us healthy.
I hope the mosquito is ok.
