On Call

I have started reading Dr. Anthony Fauci's newly released book, "On Call," described as "The memoir by the doctor who became a beacon of hope for millions through the COVID pandemic, and whose six-decade career in high-level public service put him in the room with seven presidents"

Dr. Fauci is perhaps the most famous – and most revered – doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history.

But it doesn't seem like the Republicans in congress feel that way.

I listened to Rachel Maddow and her report, and her interview with Dr. Fauci last  night.  I didn't see any of the meeting of the House subcommittee hearing about the US response to the Covid-19 pandemic and the origins of the virus, but rather than being an information gathering meeting, it was an attack on Fauci.  The senators felt that he’d tried to cover up origins of the COVID-19 pandemic.  

Senator Marjorie Taylor Green (who insisted on calling him "Mr. Fauci" instead of "Dr. Fauci") made a commitment to put every effort into prosecuting Fauci, accusing him of committing "crimes against humanity."  She said his medical license should be revoked and she wants to put him in prison for the rest of his life. She also held up an image which she said depicted dogs being experimented on, an experiment she claimed Fauci "signed off" on.

Fauci asked: "What do dogs have to do with anything that we're talking about today?"

Dr. Fauci has received numerous death threats and whenever one of the Republicans attack him, the threats to him and his family increase.  This to a man who has worked so hard on not only COVID but also on AIDS and other diseases.

He said, on Rachel Maddow's show, that when he disagreed with Donald Trump on things like drinking bleach to kill the virus, nobody in Trump's entourage would speak to him, though he had an office in the White House.

I find the actions of the Republicans toward Dr. Fauci difficult to understand and so I am eager to get into his book to find out more.

  1. Stephen Allen's documentary from 1996 documents very effectively Fauci's involvement in the HIV/AIDS scare. Many within the gay liberation movement protested his actions for legitimate reasons. He was a primary advocate of a so-called medicine (AZT) that randomly destroys DNA, creating HIV/AIDS symptoms. This includes bodily matter found in brain tissue, bone marrow and other vital aspects of the human body.

    Writer Fabio Vighi convincingly made the case that the pandemic was a manufactured attack against the world public to obfuscate an imminent worldwide financial collapse. The Tanzanian president correctly told his people that the tests were deployed on goats and papayas and came up with false results. I don't need to tell you that goats and papayas do not possess human respiratory symptoms. Similarly, HIV tests were deployed in Japan. Japan is one of the least affected nations by HIV and random tests of their citizens stated that 25% of their population was HIV+.

    I have only gone out of my way to rebuke this post because of your status as one of the first YouTube vloggers. I only hope you accept the truth of the matter before it is too late.
