It seems that Dr. Anthony Fauci has published a new scientific paper titled, HIV/AIDS and Covid-19: Shared Lessons From Two Pandemics, in which he shares eight lessons learned from the pandemics to help minimize the impact of future outbreaks.
The first lesson is simply to expect the unexpected.
The second lesson is that political leadership at the highest level is critical in pandemics. Fauci uses this lesson to dunk on President Trump for “minimizing the seriousness of the pandemic” and “repeatedly claiming COVID-19 would just go away.”
Fauci goes on to knock Trump for not pushing masks and social distancing enough from his “bully pulpit” even though there was no science to support these recommendations.
He blames Trump for giving “credence” to “unproven and potentially dangerous substances” to treat covid, like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin… two safe and effective drugs that proved to be incredibly helpful, and even life-saving for many.
Fauci also repeats the false narrative that Trump told people to inject bleach to treat covid.
Trump had actually referenced a study that was shared with him by William Bryan, then the undersecretary for science and technology at the Department of Homeland Security. The study found disinfectants, like bleach, used on surfaces and in aerosols had an adverse effect on coronavirus. So Trump asked whether disinfectants could be used to potentially treat COVID, which seems a far cry from “giving credence” to bleach injections.
An interesting side note is that the CDC’s Pink Book reveals at least one effective disinfectant (formaldehyde) is used in 28 different vaccines (e.g., DTaP, Hib, Hep A, Hep B, Influenza).
