@Linmo Dr. Fauci is a calcified bureaucrat masquerading as a doctor. He pooh-poohed Hydroxychlorquine when it's use had been shown to have positive effects on the disease. His pronouncement on handshaking is a cruel joke. He and Dr. Birx have relied on "models" that have consistently overblown the effects of the disease. His credibility has long gone away.
@Cats3000, and yet again with that darn med. Do you have stock in it?
BTW, you insult a man that is one who so many of us revere right now for his knowledge and his honesty, as opposed to misinformation and false hope in unproven cures that can be very dangerous.

@suzyQ3, not only that, but Dr. Fauci is the one doctor in the entire country they sent the nurse from Dallas that had contracted Ebola to for treatment. And he successfully treated her and she is alive today because of him and the protocols put in place by Dr. Fauci.
Not to mention that most really revered infectious disease docs in the country including those in Nebraska and Emory trained underneath him. Many of the docs that work through Doctors Without Borders have worked under Dr. Fauci as well.
His credentials are fine and those that have an understanding of infectious disease and epidemiologists understand that. This is just noise from people that want to put up a smokescreen and caste blame about something they don't really know or they know better, but they have a particular agenda to push.
I also think that many don't understand that one article which identified some success with hydroxychloroquine was not accepted for publication in peer reviewed journals. There were problems because the docs did not identify what happened to the 6 other patients. They did not include that 3 of the patients ended up in ICU (one died), 1 dropped out of the study because of severe nausea, and 1 ended up actually testing negative on 2 different occasions for coronavirus. Makes anyone question if they had someone in the original group that didn't even have the coronavirus, if any of the other patients did. These are the types things that make these small sample studies really problematic & they certainly aren't scientific.
And any good doctor or epidemiologist knows that, which is why they want to see clinical trials. Too late when you make a large scale recommendation for treatment that ends up killing people that would have otherwise survived. No one wants that, do they?
