Fauci the liar

Phony Fauci fesses up on fake science and COVID flim-flam

Former COVID czar Dr. Anthony Fauci gave closed-door testimony before Congress last week, so it’s time yet again for the Fauci Follies!

The pint-size patron saint of the failed restrictionist policies that lefties and COVID crazies love simply can’t admit he’s lost a massive argument with reality. 

The Not-So-Good Doctor got off to a weak start in DC, surprising House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Chair Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio) with “how much he doesn’t recall” from the start of the pandemic. 

How convenient! 

Fauci, after all, led the effort in the early days of the pandemic to quash the idea (now regarded as probable by the feds) that COVID sprang from the Wuhan Institute of Virology — throwing his considerable weight behind efforts to smear and suppress anyone who dared to dissent. 

That’s after he admitted in private he took it seriously

And before COVID even hit, he was passing funds to the WIV via the EcoHealth Alliance as the NIH helped pay for gain-of-function research there

All great stuff to forget. 

Then there’s the anti-COVID policies he championed: social distancing and vaccine mandates for schools and businesses. 

On some of it, Fauci seems finally to have come clean. Per Wenstrup, he “claimed that the policies and mandates he promoted may unfortunately increase vaccine hesitancy for years to come.”

No shock there: He and his cronies encouraged draconian rules around vaccines that don’t meaningfully stop transmission or infection, even as the medical establishment did everything it could to make talking about their (real but thankfully rare) side effects taboo

On social distancing, it seems he’s admitted the whole thing was completely fake from the start. 

The idea was everyone staying six feet away from each other would slow the virus spread. 

From that flowed the “need” to close businesses, shut schools, and generally immiserate average Americans. 

Yet, per Fauci (in Wenstrup’s words), the 6′ guidelines “sort of just appeared” without meaningful scientific input and “likely not based on scientific data.”

No kidding: The idea initially came from a high-schoolers 2006 science project (it placed third, by the way).

So, because of something Fauci now admits was totally made up, unimaginable harm was done — and yet he’s utterly unrepentant. 

Perhaps the most terrible effect of this unscientific diktat was the massive academic and psychological damage it did to kids kept out of school for weeks and months on end. 

 

 

 

 

As of 2022, 8th graders had lost two decades — two decades! — of progress, the deepest drop ever. 

For Fauci? No big deal! 

According to Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas), he’s “still not convinced that there was learning loss” at all, that it’s “still really open for discussion.”

No, Tony, it’s not: The policies you backed did damage to a generation of kids — damage concentrated among poorer, black, and Latino students. 

No wonder you lie; how else could you live with yourself?

It’s beyond clear by now that Fauci didn’t just get everything wrong about COVID it was possible to get wrong while treating anyone who disagreed like a Satan-worshipper.

He’s a cold-blooded sociopath, pure and simple. 

The closed-door testimony is only the start; he’s slated to speak at a public hearing as well.

 

There’s no way to make Fauci pay for all the vast damage he’s done, which as our Douglas Murray notes extends to shattering the public’s “faith in institutions. And faith in science.”

But if he can’t be prosecuted, he at least should be shamed as a villain greater than the hero he once played.

Chinese lab had COVID-19 mapped two weeks before global outbreak: documents

Published Jan. 17, 2024, 1:19 p.m. ET
 

A Chinese researcher isolated and mapped out COVID-19 — and uploaded it to a US-run database — at least two weeks before Beijing officially identified the virus which has claimed more than 3 million lives worldwide, according to bombshell new documents.

The documents, obtained from the US Department of Health and Human Services by House Republicans and first reported by the Wall Street Journal, show virologist Dr. Lili Ren uploaded nearly the entire sequence of COVID-19’s structure to a US government-run database on Dec. 28, 2019.

Her work was nearly identical to what Beijing eventually presented to the World Health Organization on January 11, 2020, when the virus had already spread across the world, according to the documents obtained by Republicans on the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

The extra two weeks could have proven pivotal to the global response to the pandemic and the development of COVID-19 vaccines as scientists were racing to understand the virus in late 2019 and early 2020.

Ren, of the Institute of Pathogen Biology at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences in Beijing, attempted to publish information on the virus to GenBank, operated by the US National Institutes of Health.

Her work, however, was never published on the site, but rather deleted after she failed to respond to technical issues with her submission — issues that did not pertain to the science backing her work, the documents state.

Ren is also notably a sub-grantee of the controversial nonprofit EcoHealth Alliance.

The New York-based organization was on the same National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) grant given to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which has now been barred from receiving US funding for the next 10 years over evidence the pandemic originated at the Chinese lab.

Dr. Anthony Fauci was the director of NIAID during the pandemic and has received widespread criticism over his handling of the crisis. He retired in December 2022.

Ren did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment on her submission to GenBank.

The documents revealing the early COVID-19 sequencing were released after the House Energy and Commerce Committee threatened to subpoena the Department of Health and Human Services.

The House committee noted that Ren’s case is the earliest known instance of a Chinese researcher’s early work on COVID sequencing being deleted after having been submitted to GenBank, suggesting interference from Beijing.

Committee Chairs Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-Wash.), Brett Guthrie (R-Ky.) and Morgan Griffith (R-Va.) said the incident highlights the need to probe further into what Chinese and US health officials knew in the early days of the pandemic.

“This significant discovery further underscores why we cannot trust any of the so-called ‘facts’ or data provided by the CCP [Chinese Communist Party] and calls into serious question the legitimacy of any scientific theories based on such information,” the lawmakers said in a statement.

“The American people deserve to know the truth about the origins of SARS-CoV-2, and our investigation has uncovered numerous causes for concern, including how taxpayers’ dollars are spent, how our government’s public health agencies operate, and the need for more oversight into research grants to foreign scientists,” they added.

“The documents released today are consistent with testimony uncovered by the Select Subcommittee and the published work of Dr. Jeremy Farrar,” a spokesperson for the House panel investigating the coronavirus pandemic told The Post.

Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist at Rutgers University, told The Post that the information the House committee obtained had been in the public domain since February 2020, when the Chinese paper Caixin published an article about it, which was taken down shortly afterward.

Ebright previously posted on X about the details on April 2, 2020, saying the virus genome sequencing began on Dec. 24 and an analysis confirmed it was a “new coronavirus related to, but different from, SARS-CoV on December 27.”

“It is of course misfeasance — actionable misfeasance — that the NIH has withheld this information from Congress for months,” Ebright told The Post.

“Former NIH Director Collins and former Acting NIH Director Tabak need to be held accountable for their misfeasance, with, at minimum, forfeiture of federal positions and federal pensions,” he added. 

“This latest revelation by Rep. McMorris Rodgers that HHS had a nearly complete viral sequence in December 2019, weeks earlier than previously claimed, is just the latest example of HHS’s attempts to prevent the public from fully understanding where COVID-19 originated,” Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) told The Post.

“In September 2023, I revealed that NIAID official Dr. Ping Chen reported on safety concerns at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in November 2017. HHS continues to refuse to provide me with a fully unredacted version of Dr. Chen’s report and make her available for an interview. The American people deserve the complete truth about the origins COVID-19.”

 

The Chinese Embassy did not comment on the incident but defended China’s response to the pandemic and the information it presented to the world.

“China has kept refining our COVID response based on science to make it more targeted,” an embassy spokesperson told the Wall Street Journal.

“China’s COVID response policies are science-based, effective, and consistent with China’s national realities. They can stand the test of history.”

Bangino trying to stay relevant. Fox wasn't renewing his contract anyway. He had no one to argue with after Geraldo retired.
