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.

Fauci’s wife is a Hillary donor.....gave her $1000.
Fauci also praised the Clinton Foundation (gag).
Most credible polls have the President at 55% support and climbing.
How long that lasts is anyone's guess at this point, but still -- 55% and even some of my most vocal Trump-hating friends have stifled their dissent and support President Trump right now.
Dr. Fauci specifically said he hopes it works, the scientist side of him wants clinical proof it does.
The man is a scientist. He operates on facts and figures, not hope. He was clear in his remarks yesterday that he supports President Trump hoping it works.
My own opinion here is the drug should immediately be made available to everyone who's tested positive under the President's "right to try" E.O. that was signed late last year and those folks have the option to take it. Monitor those who do.
There's our test group & clinical trial. Now if I've thought of that idea, I guarantee you it's already happening. Let's give "PROOF" a little time to happen.
I support President Trump & Dr. Fauci 100%.
I would urge you to pay more attention to what is going on today with Trump and Fauci. What he is saying at the press conferences is leading the voters to approve of Trump.
Thanks. I agree.
I knew it. If I thought of it, it had to already be happening. It's just common sense and I'm so glad our President is doing this.
Never, ever, EVER EVER bet against America.
Thanks. Glad to hear NY is doing it in clinical trials, especially to avoid patients not taking the full regimen of chloroquinine and possibly allowing an immune strain to evolve.
