What Fauci did has nothing to do with MAGA, and started in 2010, then escalated until Obama ended it in the US in 2014.The evidence is overwhelming that non-vaxxers fared worse and of course I support Fauci, not blindly, but because he deserves our respect. It's only the cult who sees it differently and the cult is not smarter than the rest of us. Leave him the F alone.
Still waiting on magas to put the blame where it belongs instead of on some contorted pretzel logic that cannot be proven. But regardless if it came from a lab or a market, you still owe your country a competent response, because lives should matter more than your re-election.
"The woman who publicly recounted how her father died of COVID-19 because he trusted President Donald Trump doubled down on her criticism Thursday following the revelation that the president told journalist Bob Woodward that he intentionally played down the pandemic even though he knew it was "deadly."

"The president's lies are undeniable and inexcusable,” said Kristin Urquiza, who delivered a blistering rebuke of Trump's handling of the pandemic at the Democratic convention.www.nbcnews.com
Fauci authored a paper, published in the Society for Microbiology, in October 2012.
"In an unlikely but conceivable turn of events, what if that scientist becomes infected with the virus, which leads to an outbreak and ultimately triggers a pandemic? Many ask reasonable questions: given the possibility of such a scenario – however remote – should the initial experiments have been performed and/or published in the first place, and what were the processes involved in this decision?
Scientists working in this field might say – as indeed I have said – that the benefits of such experiments and the resulting knowledge outweigh the risks. It is more likely that a pandemic would occur in nature, and the need to stay ahead of such a threat is a primary reason for performing an experiment that might appear to be risky.
Within the research community, many have expressed concern that important research progress could come to a halt just because of the fear that someone, somewhere, might attempt to replicate these experiments sloppily. This is a valid concern."
