NOT ONLY THAT, Early in the development of the COVID-19 vaccine, Hotez objected to the rapid process, noting the failure of previous vaccines for coronaviruses. Let's see what he said then :

“I understand the importance of accelerating timelines for vaccines in general, but from everything I know, this is not the vaccine to be doing it with,” Dr Peter Hotez, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, told Reuters.

Hotez worked on development of a vaccine for SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), the coronavirus behind a major 2003 outbreak, and found that some vaccinated animals developed more severe disease compared with unvaccinated animals when they were exposed to the virus.

“There is a risk of immune enhancement,” said Hotez. “The way you reduce that risk is first you show it does not occur in laboratory animals.”

Now, anyone questioning vaccine efficacy, questioning the unknowns about long-term effects, or expressing concern about infections among the vaccinated is an anti-vaxxer, according to Hotez. In an appearance on MSNBC, he claimed that this criticism is now a feature of “far right-wing extremism.” His assertion is in search of support since the “Dirty Dozen” of vaccine misinformation, according to the report the White House used, has precisely one Trump supporter in it.

It’s Fauci who is a blithering hate crime.

[packagingguy]

Wait a minute, this is great news for me! I love it! This means when we are trying to clear a new medical device or packaging configuration with the FDA they will be unable to question our department’s findings.

Any criticism of our department by FDA officials will now be a hate crime. Yippeeeee!

[SmokingJoe]

Actually, not attacking Fauci is a hate crime.
In any normal country, Fauci the arch criminal would be languishing in jail for life or worse.

Freedom of Speech is a hate crime? How is criticizing someone a crime?

[LIConFem]

This will never pass Constitutional muster. Not even with the current band of phoney “originalists” on the US Supreme Court.

Political speech has always enjoyed the highest level of protection from the First Amendment.

“Science” has been politicized—therefore criticism of “science” is political speech.

Dr. FauXi is a political puppet—therefore criticism of him is political speech.

The NIH is the largest public funder of biomedical research in the world, with an annual budget of $32 billion to invest.

I passed criticism last year.

When I think of dr Fubar torture comes to mind.

[Sirius Lee]

I would call funding illegal gain of function experiments to make a virus deadly and lying about it when it breaks out of the lab and shuts down the entire world economy a hate crime. And crime against humanity.

Fauci should get the Nuremberg treatment.
