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.
A Short History Of How Anthony Fauci Has Kept Failing Up Since 1984
The media buried long-standing concerns that Anthony Fauci had been ‘sucking money away from work to understand and counter natural disease outbreaks.’thefederalist.com

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.

Check out California's Covid cases nearing 3 million and an estimated 1 out of 3 people have been infected:

1 in 3 L.A. County residents have been infected by coronavirus since pandemic began, new estimate shows
Officials believe 1 in 3, or more than 3 million of L.A. County's 10 million residents, have been infected with the coronavirus, including 13,000 who have died.

That is so absolutely dumb. When the Pandemic was starting out during our winter , it was out of control in the hot weather of Iran. Starting to get out of control in the summer of Brazil and South Africa. Only stable geniuses like trump would predict that the weather would control the outbreak. Gimme an other shot of Clorox.
It is well known with all the vaccines that even if you are "immunized" and your system is ready to fight efficiently, this fight is not instantaneous. When you are "immunized" there are 2 systems protecting you. First you have a certain amount of antibodies circulating within your blood. When they find the antigen (the virus in this case) they trap it and, second, they present it to specialized lymphocytes (white cells, that were programmed upon vaccination) that will then produce much more antibodies and sort of eat the antigen. The reaction goes on and on up to the victory when there are no more circulating antigens. Afterward, the quantity of circulating antibodies will go down again, but your system is on guard for the next infection. The herd immunity is reached when a large majority of the population has this "safety watch" protection. So you may catch the virus, amplifies it a bit, and pass it but you may not notice it as you will not have any symptoms and will not be sick. Assuming you pass it to an "immunized" one, it will be the same for him. But if you pass it to a "non-immunized one" then this person could be sick. Herd immunity is just a statistic question. There are thousands of virus circulating but because we are immunized or they are not harmfull we do not notice them. Some virus even protect us as they are harmless but have similar proteins to other harmfull ones. In contact with the first ones, we have a kind of immunity toward the second dangerous ones. Just remember that those reactions take time and even if you are protected from sickness you can still pas the virus to and unprotected people. You understand that this is a simplified explanation giving you and idea of how the system works. In real life, immunology is a complex but wonderfull and efficient sytem but not fullproof... That is why we are still at war against HIV and cancer. Hope that it's help.
The problem is you don't get what is written. COVID is the disease, not the virus. The virus is Sars-Cov-2. So yes the vaccines prevent the disease but do not prevent you from getting the virus, amplifying a bit within your lungs (before your immune system eliminates all virus within you) and passing it to others. That is why, even vaccinated and immunized (it takes usually about 2-3 weeks to get a reliable immunity and often 2 doses to get a robust lasting one) we will be asked to continue to wash our hands, wear a mask (to protect others) and social distances. When we will get to herd immunity (6-9 months, who knows...) we could get back to a new normal that could be different from the one pre-COVID. Notice the words "believe" and "may" in the citation. Everything in the CDC statement is actually true. Vaccines (Pfizer, Modena and Astra-Zeneca) demonstrated to prevent severe illness. Nothing more, nothing less, for the moment. We can be hopefull but we must stay realistic.
To get a rough idea of the complexity of immune system and how it works, here is a link. It is quite easy to understand but remember this is a very tricky area and we are still trying to understand how it works and sometime doesn't work so well... This is not up to date as it is from 2014 but it's enough for the purpose here. It is short and simple to understand.

Your right, it is completely dumb to think only Trump felt this way. Don't be so hard on yourself.

It's what we have to go by. Maybe the CDC needs to ask peoples opinions on a Canadian escort review board. [...]. Providing links to what your talking about would be helpful for us common folk.

[...]. I allready put a link from Australian government explaining in simple words how immunology, our biological defense system, works. If you don't get it find some help. [...]. Stay safe!!! And by the way, I know very well what I'm talking about it is my field of expertise and training others.
