Fauci Shifts From Science, but Maybe Faith Will Force You to Fall in Line – Opinion

If you don’t trust Anthony Fauci as your doctor, perhaps you’ll listen to him as your priest.

In a Fox News interview with Neil Cavuto, the medicine man seemed to swap classic calls to “the science” for something more personal: what he believes.

Neil observed that COVID vaccinations may have not lived up to the promise of some Americans.

“[W]hen people heard, ‘Oh my gosh — [a rallying infection] has happened…to Dr. Anthony Fauci,’ everyone knows someone who’s gotten [COVID] again — and sometimes again after that — and they’re beginning to wonder about the regimen for treating it. It does not matter whether you receive two vaccine shots, if you get another booster or not. They just don’t know. What do you tell them?”

Dr. Fauci called it “a great question.” He waxed on certainty and our ever-expanding series of injections:

“There’s no doubt that the vaccines themselves — particularly vaccine plus a booster at the appropriate time when you become eligible for a booster; for more than one booster if you’re over 50 years old, you get eligibility for two boosters — one of the things that’s clear from the data, that even though vaccines…”

Toward the second half of that mile-long sentence, he fingered the culprit causing vaccines’ poor performance:

…because of the high degree of transmissibility of this virus…

Do the vaccines not work because the virus is highly transmissible, or do they not work because they don’t work, allowing the virus to be highly transmitted?

The vaccines might work; however, you don’t want them to fail. Overly well:

“[The vaccines] don’t protect overly well, as it were, against infection…”

Yet, there’s an upside — if you “believe”…

“[T]hey protect quite well against severe disease leading to hospitalization and death.”

It’s a matter of faith:

“[I] believe that’s the reason…why, at my age, being vaccinated and boosted — even though it didn’t protect me against infection — I feel confident that it [played] a major role in protecting me from progressing to severe disease.”

Perhaps it did. Of course, vaccines are not something that can be believed. We were not told to do anything else. For years, the country was told to “trust the science.” Oddly — so far as I’m aware — those words were rarely if at all ever accompanied by offered science.



Political podcaster Dave Rubin wasn’t won over by Fauci’s phrasing. On the July 14th episode of The Rubin ReportHe was very clear about it:

“[Fauci]This is a salesman for snake oils. … [W]You were assured that COVID could not occur if the vaccine was given to you. … Then, of course, the evidence starts pouring… … So the message was…’Oh, it’s not a vaccine like the way we’ve always known vaccines, meaning that you’d be…vaccinated from the thing. It’s actually just going to stop you from being hospitalized. … I have never seen a study on this. … When Obama gets COVID and Hillary gets COVID and Psaki gets COVID….they all say the same thing — ‘I got COVID and it’s mild, and I’m just so happy I got the shot and got boosted;Because otherwise, I’d be sicker.’ There’s no evidence of it. … They just keep saying it. And…the way [Fauci]…phrases it…you know he’s admitting it. ‘Cause he says, ‘I believe.’ … He doesn’t say there’s actually any evidence of it. … So…he’s just sort of admitting none of this made any sense.”

It does seem rather easy to claim something would’ve been worse if not for “X.” If statistics do show that a higher percentage of people hospitalized with COVID are unvaccinated, are they in the hospital becauseYou can either do it or not. With it? Could there be additional factors involved?

Either way, studies and statistics haven’t been kind to lockdowns and masks. Fauci will insist that you believe it. Fauci might surprise you if you think you are free from compulsory muzzles. In the meantime, the doctor prescribes volunteerism — anything less is inappropriate:

“[Y]Masks are an absolute must in any indoor or congregate setting. It’s just the appropriate thing to do to protect yourself and your family.”

And don’t dare consider the pandemic kaput:

“Everyone wants to put this pandemic behind us and feel and hope that it doesn’t exist. It does.”

Dave thought about this, too.

“Dude, I want to feel and hope that you never existed. That’s where I’m at with you right now.”
