Dr Mccormick comments regarding covid mitigations can be said for abortion! I'm a geek and watched the whole thing and his theme was government should not come between a patient and what is right fir them and their Dr. How much you want to bet he is pro life. The hypocrisy is so frustrating

Ta, Evan. Those of us who work with HIV positive clients have long considered Dr. Fauci a hero. Unlike TFG, he's always found the best people to work with, which is why he tapped a team that had been working for six years on a SARS vaccine to modify their work for COVID-19.

Fauci should ask one of his (R) interrogators to demonstrate drinking bleach as a treatment.

Great article in TFNYT by Dr. Rick Bright, former head of Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), and a renowned virologist. Dr. Bright was one of the leading authorities who provided informed guidance during the pandemic, and who, like Dr. Fauci was demonized by the Republican orcs in Congress. He is sounding the alarm about H1N1, and given his expertise, it would be wise to listen.

MTG stole her whole "flash picture board"routine from Letterman. I doubt she watched Carson.

I followed the Fauci hearings and there was a lot of talk about the origins of the virus and "gain of function". I wish someone had asked Fauci if knowing its origin would have made any difference in the pandemic response. There was also not much said about the ongoing horror of long covid which afflicts nearly one in twelve Americans. One in my family has it, and it has been devastating.

I really REALLY despise Republican doctor-polticians.They invariably use their status to attack the very foundations of their profession. Please note that they do so in violation of their solenn oaths as doctors, which makes them oath-breakers and thus completely unworthy of any trust or responsibility, especially that of a national official. If they'll break their oaths as doctors, why wouldn't they break their oaths as Congressmen? A doctor who is loudly anti-science for his personal political benefit is already halfway to Treason.

And that's a wrap. The GOP just gave 5 minute speeches and split. Couple of them tried to bait Tony into their fantasy world, he wasn't having it. He blew off Gym's nonsense.

"Dr. Fauci, is this letter from your cousin, addressed to Tony Fauci, to you?"

"I believe so, yes."

"And this letter from the draft board, to Mr. Anthony Fauci, was that also to you?"

"Yes, it was . . ."

"And you just answered me when I called you Dr. Fauci, correct?"

"Yes . . ."

"So which is it, Dr. Fauci, if that even is your real name? Are you Tony, Anthony, Mr. Fauci, Dr. Fauci, Mr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Tony Stark, or one of your many other aliases? And why should we trust a man who uses so many aliases? Wait, no, don't interrupt me when I'm speechifying, Dr. F -- if we don't even know your name, how can we possibly know that anything you have ever said is true? I bet there wasn't even a pandemic -- it was just a Deep State plot to make our glorious God-Emperor Trump look bad, wasn't it, Mr. Anton Checkhov!?!???!"
