I just saw today in the subway's tv news that seven people who've been vaccinated in Quebec in a long-term care home have contracted the virus.
I think I'm gonna get depressed very soon.

An interesting write-up of Fauci's career pre-Covid, including his comprehensive bungling of the AIDS epidemic. And the good news is that he isn't going anywhere.

The Fauci article is interesting. Is it accurate? Perhaps, perhaps not. I don't know.
Here's what Wikipedia says about the source of the article (The Federalist) :
It published a piece by someone identified as a physician in Oregon who recommended that people hold "chickenpox"-style parties for the coronavirus to build herd immunity, but the recommendations were contrary to those of public health experts, and the author in question did not have a medical license and had worked as a businessman for decades.[26][28][29] At the time, experts warned that the number of new infections should be kept down so as to not overburden the health care system.[30] The Federalist was subsequently temporarily suspended from Twitter for promoting fringe ideas that contradicted public health experts and were harmful to public health.[29] Reddit also removed links to The Federalist article on its platform.[31]
Here's what Wikipedia says about the source of the article (The Federalist) :
Coronavirus pandemic misinformation[edit]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, The Federalist published numerous pieces that contained false information or information that was contrary to the recommendations of public health experts and authorities.[5][26] The Federalist published articles denouncing social distancing, as well as articles claiming that fears over the pandemic had been overhyped by the Democratic Party and the media. The Federalist co-founder Sean Davis said that Democrats were intentionally trying to "destroy the economy" as a "last-ditch 2020 play", and that "All they care about is power. And if they have to destroy your life and business to get power back, they will." The Federalist published articles calling on the government to quickly end social distancing directions, and to open businesses again.[26] Co-founder Domenech attacked a prominent analysis from Imperial College London which estimated the loss of life due to the pandemic; Domenech attacked the analysis for revising its figures downward, but the reason that the analysis did so was that the analysis incorporated the social distancing and shutdown strategies that had increasingly been implemented.[27] Tracinski, a former contributor, wrote in Bulwark that The Federalist devolved over time into a "conspiracy-mongering partisan rag that has now become a menace to public health".[27]It published a piece by someone identified as a physician in Oregon who recommended that people hold "chickenpox"-style parties for the coronavirus to build herd immunity, but the recommendations were contrary to those of public health experts, and the author in question did not have a medical license and had worked as a businessman for decades.[26][28][29] At the time, experts warned that the number of new infections should be kept down so as to not overburden the health care system.[30] The Federalist was subsequently temporarily suspended from Twitter for promoting fringe ideas that contradicted public health experts and were harmful to public health.[29] Reddit also removed links to The Federalist article on its platform.[31]
You don't have to search a long time to find someone supposedly knowledgeable who will affirm that the earth is flat !
A very interesting and informative article, thank you for posting.An interesting write-up of Fauci's career pre-Covid, including his comprehensive bungling of the AIDS epidemic. And the good news is that he isn't going anywhere.

Rightwing articles are often interesting. The reason is that fiction can be so much more exciting than facts.
you sound pretty sure but it is not know whether there are silent spreaders with the pfizer or moderna vaccine since that was not tested. with many vaccines that is not the case. if what you say turns out to be true, then how will we achieve herd immunity-- which of course is what we are hoping for by getting a large percentage of the population vaccinated.
Unfortunately Fauci stating that wearing a mask maybe even more harmful as it will give you a false sense of safety was no fiction. It was live television on CNN, I know they don’t replay it as ones of the Orange one are much more popular to the audience they serve. This of course was coming from the foremost authority on infectious diseases.
He probably missed seeing the thousands of Chinese all wearing masks or thought it was a weird fashion statement.
For me Fauci will always be a bobble head for whoever is in power, he will now brown nose Biden just like he did Trump, at least he is the right height for it and uses this advantage well it seems.

That's incorrect. From the CDC's website:
COVID-19 vaccination will help keep you from getting COVID-19
- All COVID-19 vaccines currently available in the United States have been shown to be highly effective at preventing COVID-19. Learn more about the different COVID-19 vaccines.
- All COVID-19 vaccines that are in development are being carefully evaluated in clinical trials and will be authorized or approved only if they make it substantially less likely you’ll get COVID-19. Learn more about how federal partners are ensuring COVID-19 vaccines work.
- Based on what we know about vaccines for other diseases and early data from clinical trials, experts believe that getting a COVID-19 vaccine may also help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do get COVID-19.
- Getting vaccinated yourself may also protect people around you, particularly people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
- Experts continue to conduct more studies about the effect of COVID-19 vaccination on severity of illness from COVID-19, as well as its ability to keep people from spreading the virus that causes COVID-19.
Trump, early in 2020: "A lot of people think it goes away in April...with the heat."
He absolutely said that, but he wasn’t alone, many of the Covid geniuses thought the same thing.
