In the latest proof that the White House needs to muzzle Dr. Anthony Fauci, the president’s top medical adviser told the nation that normalcy won’t come before fall or winter 2022 — then corrected it to a still-absurd spring 2022. Fauci’s initial claim to NPR was that if enough Americans get vaxxed, the country could “really get some good control over” the virus by late next year. Then he backtracked, telling CNN’s Anderson Cooper: “I didn’t mean the fall — I misspoke. My bad.” My bad? His job involves giving the public his best sense of the science and what...

Dr. Anthony Fauci warned during a press briefing on Thursday that a booster shot will be required for everyone "sooner or later" to ensure that the durability of protection from COVID-19 vaccines continues.

(Flashback Fauci: pre-vaccine truths )... At least four candidates are near the finish line in the U.S. coronavirus vaccine race, but how well they will work remains a question. A key point to note, however, is that the vaccine isn’t an end-all solution to the pandemic. That’s in large part because any inoculations developed now are focused on simply preventing symptoms from arising, rather than blocking out the virus altogether. The latter goal is a secondary endpoint, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. “The primary thing you want to do is...

Tuesday, during an appearance on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Anthony Fauci said that children as young as “greater than two years old” should wear masks if they are unvaccinated. Fauci added that later this year, once data was available on vaccinations on those under the age of 12, the Food and Drug Administration could green-light the vaccines for those of that age. Well, a couple of questions and the answers are, the children who are not able to get vaccinated because of their age should follow — their parents should follow with...

Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted he may not be well-liked for his handling of the coronavirus and claimed that he has been subjected to a "phenomenal amount of hostility." "I mean, I've been the object myself of a phenomenal amount of hostility merely because I'm promoting what are really fundamental, simple public health principles," Biden’s White House chief medical adviser told Chelsea Clinton during a segment on her podcast, In Fact with Chelsea Clinton. "That seems astounding that that would generate a considerable degree of hostility, but it is, it is."

Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has been discovered to have granted the majority of the federal funds awarded to the University of Pittsburgh by the the National Institute of Health for research involving aborted fetuses.David Daleiden, project lead and founder of The Center for Medical Progress, told Townhall that, in 2019 alone, Fauci's office awarded the University of Pittsburgh $61 million of the $109 million that they received from the NIH for research that included attaching the scalps of aborted fetuses onto the backs of lab rats and mice, an experiment that would...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Dr. Anthony Fauci is warning that a surge of coronavirus cases in Europe could foreshadow a similar surge in the United States. Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease doctor, is urging Americans to remain cautious while the nation races to vaccinate its citizens. In an interview on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” Faucis says he is “optimistic” of the vaccines’ effectiveness and expressed hope that AstraZeneca’s vaccine could join the arsenal of inoculations

Dr. Anthony Fauci is now predicting that America won’t return to “a strong semblance of normality” until the Fall, and even that will take Herculean efforts to increase the speed of vaccine distribution. “If we then diligently vaccinate people in April, May, June, July, that we will gradually and noticeably get a degree of protection approaching herd immunity, which I believe — first of all, no one really knows what absolute herd immunity is for coronavirus. We know what it is for measles because we have decades of experience with measles. So I would say it’s somewhere between 70% and...

White House coronavirus advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Thursday he’s “not comfortable” with the level of Covid-19 cases in the United States as the nation enters its fall and winter seasons. The U.S. is reporting roughly 40,000 new coronavirus cases a day, which may get even worse as temperatures get cooler and people head indoors, Fauci said during an interview with MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell. “I’m not comfortable with that. I would like to see that level, way, way down, well below 10,000.” Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said some regions of the country...
