Anthony Fauci, M.D., the 79-year old head of the National Institute of Allegy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), has become the #1 point man on the government’s role in the coronavirus crisis. Fauci has worked for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) his entire professional life. In the past, for more than two decades starting in the mid-1980s, he was the medical establishment’s face of HIV-AIDS – omnipresent on television when AIDS was hot and ever present at international AIDS conferences well into the 21st century. Always, he was an enthusiastic advocate of throwing more federal money at the problem of AIDS. He's widely praised in the press. He's also held in high esteem by his medical peers. In 2008, President George W. Bush honored Fauci with the nation's highest civilian award, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
A look back at what Fauci and his colleagues did during their decades of pushing fear and the spending of billions of dollars of funding for HIV-AIDS is instructive.
As an independent journalist, I covered the “war” on HIV-AIDS extensively starting in 1986 – just as the massive effort to combat the condition was gearing up. Eventually, the government’s spending on HIV-AIDS came to eclipse what was spent on the failed war on cancer that began in 1971, which is where my reporting on the politics of medicine and cancer had started.
After seeing a March 9, 2020 tweet by Shiva Ayyadurai, Ph.D., who has four degrees from MIT, I was inspired to take a look back to try to put Fauci’s current work on coronavirus into some perspective.

Except in January, this elderly expert said that it was not a problem for the US.
“I wonder where he and if not him, his wife might have Money tied up in Pharma Stocks?”
He and his wife, Christine Grady, would be too easy to research. Deep dive into his children’s and siblings’ finances. Remember Biden’s entire corrupt extended family?
Follow the money.
Hydroxycholorquine costs about $20 for one month’s supply. It is a generic drug manufactured by several companies. It has been approved and in use since 1955 for malaria and other diseases. It is unlikely that drug companies will pay for clinical trials in view of limited profit potential.
Remdesivir is a proprietary experimental drug developed by one major medical company, Gilead Science. It has not been approved for use at all, but is being clinically tested, apparently sponsored by Gilead Science. Estimated cost for one month’s supply is $1,000. There is a high profit potential if this drug is ultimately approved.
Is it any wonder that the drug industry is trying to slow the use of Hydroxycholoroquine to maintain a market for
remdesivir after it finishes clinical trials?
The FDA has long had a symbiotic relationship with the drug industry, which some might view as incestuous, or worse. It is possible that the FDA is complicit in delaying use of hydroxychloroquine to allow a window of opportunity for the profit from Remdesivir.
“...The FDA has long had a symbiotic relationship with the drug industry, which some might view as incestuous, or worse. It is possible that the FDA is complicit in delaying use of hydroxychloroquine to allow a window of opportunity for the profit from Remdesivir....”
Exactly. Always follow the money trail, especially when it comes to greedy lib SOBs. They may hate America but they sure love those Benjamins....lots and lots of Benjamins!!!
Perhaps Fauci and/or members of his family own a ton of Giliad stock? Maybe there’s a little “under the table” collusion? Conflict of interest, perhaps?
Inquiring minds would like to know.
If the cartels could find a way to launder as well as the Clinton Foundation does they could own all of D.C..
Tony is a true fraud.
Can go in her album of favorite pictures, between hugging Harvey Weinstein and one smiling with the Chinese Communists. Oh, those good times.
I cannot always do it but when I first glimpsed Fauci I thought he was an evil con artist. Then he showed what an insatiable camera hog and attention whore he is.
They say women are much better at telling a bad guy while the man in her life says “I don’t think so. It sounds like a really good investment. He looked me in the eye and I trust him. This Madoff is going to make us some real money. You’ll see.”
“Fauci needs to be sidelined. If Trump listens to this rat we are finished.”
On Alex Jones Show this week, Alex Jones has been saying for days that every time Trump speaks, Fauci comes after him and contradicts him. This statement about “anecdotal” evidence concerning the use of chloroquine is another example.
Yeah - Fauci did come out and say the China ban helped a lot and on that point alone he could have killed Trump but didn’t. I think he is less deep state than this thread suggests. He has given Trump the ammo for the border wall and the travel bans!
He was down on chloroquine, but the S.Koreans and Chinese are using it with good results. He should have said that but didn’t.
WTF ever.
So the guy is Hillary supporter/admirer.
I admired GW and excororiated he and his entire family after he left the White House.
You can be one thing politically and another professionally.
I know plenty of Democrats and they are just the kindest people to friends, family, employees and complete strangers.
I see God in them as they demonstrate their compassion and love for earthly human family
If there is a fault of the guy on the facts and his suppositions based on the facts then lets take the guy on
So far, I am not inclined to do that and pray to God we as a nation and our givernment have taken the correct approach on this, despite the knowledge of pain it is causing and the damage that will occur.
This is a media fed frenzy, pure and simple. Instead of rallying behind our president, CNN and the rest have an agenda to undermine him.
It’s disgusting.
This thing will flatten out soon, and we’ll pick up where we left off.
I think Trump has great intelligence, and probably foresaw the threat, and closed things down rather than be hit like Jimmy Carter.
Don’t kid yourself, this whole thing could be deep state in its development.
“Anthony Fauci, the NIH’s face of the coronavirus, is a Deep-State Hillary Clintonloving stooge”
... and yet Trump sees fit to include in his all of his daily covid-19 briefings and regularly defers to him.
disrupter or cautious?
Its true that the doctor lights up when the camera is on him. But liking attention is a small sin, if a sin at all. I think Trump will correctly suss him out and he has the final say on things.
Fauci is a mover and shaker within the Deep State establishment. That comes as no surprise. Can anyone find a powerful member of the Deep State who is a supporter of President Trump? We elected him because he was not one of them.
As long as he is doing his job and not undermining the president, I don’t care what his political background is or who he associates with. He is a leader in his field and is working well with the president.
Exactly.
“As long as he is ... not undermining the president, I dont care what his political background is”
Yabbut ... he IS undermining the President.
