Maybe but my point is it is a mixed message. How can kids go back to school with teachers who aren’t vaccinated if a vaccinated person won’t go near his kids.

Fauci has been in that job since 1984. Nobody stays in a Civil Service job for 36 years unless they have hit their Peter Principle level of Incompetence.


The Peter Principle states that a person who is competent at their job will earn a promotion to a position that requires different skills. If the promoted person lacks the skills required for the new role, they will be incompetent at the new level, and will not be promoted again.

He’s an idiot. I can’t understand why anyone would listen to a “scientist” who twists the truth and lies with a straight face consistently for almost a year. No travel ban for China, need travel ban for China, need travel ban from everywhere, maybe need travel ban domestically, need travel ban but ok when crossing southern border... No mask, mask, get shot, get shot + mask, get shots with booster in 6 months, get shots + 2 masks...

hot off the press from Fauci... masks for another year!!!

He says K-12 kids should go back to school 'safely' but won't see his own after getting the vaccine. A lot of teachers don't have the vaccine yet and we know kids are not recommended to get under the age of 16, so which recommendation is it?



He also stated masks will likely still be worn in 2022. IMO there will always be a new variant to fear monger with and a new vaccine that we need to get and this will keep going in circles.



Side note, this was a CNN video and it seems like most comments are people who don't want to hear it anymore and are over it. On CNN of all places.



Here is the video

He also praised Cuomo for his response. Fauci doesn’t know his a$$ from a hole in the ground.

I only know a few people that have had it and got it within the last 6 months. Of the ones tested for antibodies they are both very low on antibodies at the 5 month mark.

So, rapid vaccination and slowed spread seem to be the best way forward. But that is unchanged in my mind because I never really thought it was smart to let 10s of millions get it, and provide pathways for mutation.


What antibody tests were your acquaintances taking that showed antibody levels?

Labcorp results are simply IgG positive or negative, no levels

Fauci has admitted he has lied twice. He admitted the reason for the lies was to shape our behavior.

How can anything this man says possibly be credible when he has admitted he lied to elicit a desired response?? What’s preventing him from doing it again? How do we know what he’s telling us today is not just another lie? No one holds this man accountable. Disgusting.

When do we reach herd immunity? Never. From here on out, there will always be another boogie man around the corner the government will want to protect us from.

I’ve heard Fauci may have been spotted on a grassy knoll in Dallas on a particular day in 1963.

Except, the new "scary" variations came out of hard lockdown areas because of Natural Selection. The two "let 'er rip" countries, Sweden and Uruguay, didn't have much activity on that front.

Fauci is an incompetent liar. Not necessarily a co-conspirator.

Is that clear enough for you?

Yup. But don’t worry, it’s all out of love. You just need to shut up and do as you’re told. And, for the love of God, don’t ask any questions, ever.
