Dr Fauci has been director of the NIAID (National Institute of Allergy
and Infectious Diseases) since 1984. He does NOT work for the CDC.
NIAID is part of the NIH (National Institute of Health). He's has
been involved with controlling several previous epidemics, which I
presume qualifies as experience:
https://www.niaid.nih.gov/about/anthony-s-fauci-md-bio
https://www.niaid.nih.gov/about/director
https://www.niaid.nih.gov/about/niaid-history

Can you provide the name of someone in the US who is better qualified
to discuss pandemics than Dr Fauci?


There is a place for those who sit around, think and read papers.
I do not deny Fauci that much. But he is not working in the real world
as many other epidemiologists are and they often interview them on
FOX and they ALL say what I've been saying. There isn't much you can
do about a pandemic with a linear growth rate.


I see. You want to be advised on how to protect yourself from a viral
epidemic by an epidemiologist via Fox News. I don't think that's what
you intended to say, but that's what you wrote. You also seem to have
changed your position on Dr Fauci from:

"Dr. Fauci of the CDC(sic) who has continually acted an
expert at things he knows very little about."

to:

"I do not deny Fauci that much."

That's quite a change from calling the leading expert on infectious
diseases in the US an incompetent, to not denying him something you
didn't bother to specify. Of course, you're entitled to have an
opinion about anyone and anything, but I'm also entitled to discount
your opinion as rubbish. Anyway, kindly stabilize your opinion about
Dr Fauci. If it's critical, please provide the name of someone in the
US that is equally or more qualified to advise on how to handle a
pandemic. Incidentally, I could probably provide some names in China
that are substantially more qualified and equally experienced, but
such experts would not be considered as candidates for advising our
president, who knows more than any or all of them, Here's one
candidate that might have qualified had he not resigned for having is
bureau eliminated by the Trump administration:
"A top pandemic expert is leaving the Trump administration amid the
coronavirus crisis"

New York seem to be the worst. Go thee unto the aforementioned

- Update Dashboard Select Jurisdiction - New York The excess
deaths are in dark blue. Drag the mouse over the peak and it will
show about 125% excess deaths.

However, that's for New York State with New York City excluded
from the data. The "Figure Notes" below the graph proclaims: "Data

separately. Select a Dashboard - Excess deaths with and without

Drag the mouse over the peak. The info box shows excess deaths at
596.7% to 649.5%.


I imagine Tom will say all those people who died were just volunteers
participating in the big hoax.


The ultimate sacrifice. They should all be given the Presidential Medal

100,000 and counting. Going to need a lot of scrap metal for those medals.

Well the president of course, he's a world renown stable genius, has a
natural ability at healthcare and surprises even himself on how much he
knows about COVID-19.

The leading expert? Jeff, that is about the most foolish thing that you could say. Fauci is NOT an expert. Sitting around in hallowed halls of government does NOT make you an expert. The epidemiologists in the field say the opposite and that you like some sort of moron deny that they know anything for the simple reason that they are interviewed on FOX shows that you are nothing more than some stupid biased punk.

While there are many ifs, ands and buts, the clearly substantiated claims that Fauci and the CDC was profiting on supposed "cures" that were not properly tested is not open to argument.

That would be Tom.


https://www.realclearpolitics.com/vi...g_policy.html#!

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/04/...commendations/ Fauci first touts Vitamin C and D theropy and then when Trump suggests it due to hospital evidence that it helps he reverses his own statements. What else is new? Oh, that's right some SOB posting on a bicycle group tells us that Trump doesn't know what he is talking about and that Fauci who has sat on his butt for 37 years now is the world's leading expert.

Let's see the results of your elections along with Cruella Pelosi.

Your homework, Tom:

!) Find or assemble a CV for Dr. Anthony Fauci. I say that because you
obviously know very, very little about him.

2) Find or assemble a CV for the guy you allude to whom Faux News
managed to dig up.

Analyze and compare those to prove to us that your guy with his
predictable complaints is more qualified than Fauci.

We'll even give bonus points for a little more work:

3) Give us your own CV. Show us why we should listen to your opinions on
epidemiology... and history, genetics, theology, ballistics, human
anatomy, politics, engineering, medicine, sociology, geology,
meteorology, technology, etc. You know - all the other things about
which you, as a high school dropout, claim to be much smarter than
hundreds of trained, experienced, and recognized experts.
