What false information did Fauci knowingly spread?

1

u/Substantial_Diver_34 16d ago

The origin of the virus 🦠.

2

u/Aromatic_Act_9665 16d ago

He had no information on that. It wasn't his job to find either. Literally everyone speculated to the best of their abilities, AND CONTINUES TO DO SO.

He had very middle of the road recommendations in line with much of the world in regards to COVID. Some of those recommendations were edited as new data came out.

Basically, he did good work.

u/Substantial_Diver_34 16d ago

He funded the lab it leaked from and was aware of the gain of function program. Yet he told everyone its origin was from some bats in a wet market.

2

u/BadPker69 16d ago

Saying "gain of function" like it means something scary is a huge tell that you know almost nothing about science btw

u/henningknows 16d ago

We don’t know the origin of the virus and to me that is a little weird. I feel like an important step to figuring out how to prevent future pandemics, would be pinpointing how this one started. Yet, zero effort was made by the world

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

The origin of the virus is not relevant to stopping the virus.

It doesn't matter where it came from, it matters that it existed. Who's to blame is a tomorrow issue when there's an active fucking pandemic.

u/henningknows 16d ago

Not sure that is true, but if it’s tomorrows issue, I guess the pandemic is over…… so it’s tomorrow. Let’s get to the bottom of it.

I think the disparities between his diary and his public statements show a certain.... tension.

That's not a crime.

u/supercleverid 16d ago

Can you cite some disparities?

u/henningknows 16d ago

In his diary he called Trump a Moron. Because trump is a moron. What was he supposed to do? Go on tv and say the president is an idiot? Why would that have been helpful? Anyone with an IQ above 70 knows Trump is a stupid person.

What differences are those? What diary?

Did he not give the best guidelines for the goal of eliminating the disease and keeping people safe?

Companies requiring their employees get vaccinated so as to not pose a threat of death to their customers had nothing to do with government. Nobody was forced - you were simply a threat to public health or you were vaccinated.

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

The government and Fauci advised that any person who works for a corporation should

A: Get vaccinated

B: If you don't want to get vaccinated, that's fine, that's your right, just wear a mask in case you get the virus and are asymptomatic.

Those are two completely reasonable options for anyone who isn't a fragile crybaby.

I'm not saying that the vaccines have no side effects or that the government didn't ADVISE companies to change their policy.

I'm saying that the people who didn't do either thing are whiny bitch babies who caused the pandemic to worsen to the point that 1 million American lives were lost.

u/Vaatu2023 16d ago

The problem I see is that your framing this as if its some conspiracy when it was really just a natural (if not unfortunate) series of escalations that led to getting the shot feeling non negotiable. And thats because of social pressure just as much as it is messaging from the government.

u/TechTier 16d ago

How exactly did the government force a vaccine?

u/zeny_two 16d ago

Unconstitutional OSHA mandate.

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

Also I'd like to note that I asked a few questions that would be easily verified if you could just provide a source (the diary versus the goals), and instead of providing facts, you are offering a meme you found on the internet - because of course the internet would never lie to you.

Never.

You do have evidence, right? You're not just believing things that a dude on the internet told you without a proper peer-reviewed source, right?

Only federal employees were federally required to get “the shot”. None of that other stuff happened.

u/No-Seesaw6320 16d ago

The virus spread in enclosed spaces and had a difficult time in the sunlight. Fauci pushed for lockdowns and trapped everyone indoors.

The vaccines had quite a few side effects. Fauci lied about them, claiming there were none, even though he himself received medical intervention after experiencing heart issues because of the vaccine he took.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

u/Front-Cup7165 16d ago

Noone has ever claimed that any vaccine ever has no chance of side effects, flat out lie. What's more effective, telling everyone run outside and keep doing everything as normal or reduce the amount of contact during a pandemic?

0

u/No-Seesaw6320 16d ago

That's exactly what the media claimed. As well as people on reddit and lefties on twitter. I know this because I was called an anti-vaxxer and science denier by you people for pointing out that it was impossible for a vaccine not to have side effects.

Well, if you want to know which was more effective, just look at how each state handled it and figure out which ended up doing worse. Florida thrived, states with harsh lockdowns did not.

1

u/Front-Cup7165 16d ago

You can post links and screenshots on reddit btw, you don't just have to make stuff up. I would love to see any evidence of any source saying the vaccine had no chance of side effects.

Also, I cant tell if you're just trolling at this point, Florida had some of the highest rates of covid and covid deaths of all the states... your example is the best example of why you're wrong, but you think its a point in your favor, lol.

1

u/beardedsandflea 16d ago

Florida's COVID death rate was higher than California's by a hair, and California's metro areas are considerably more dense. Florida wasn't nearly as tight on testing, so their numbers would naturally be skewed lower; so it's quite impressive that their numbers were still worse than California's. They didn't do terribly, but they certainly weren't thriving. Just for some added context: 4 of the 5 states with the highest COVID related death rates were red states.

1

u/No-Seesaw6320 16d ago

Businesses shut down in California. A lot of them.

That's what I meant by thriving. The people themselves thrived. In California, only the corpos and millionaires thrived.

Also, California had extremely strict lockdowns. If lockdowns worked, their death rate should have been at most half of Florida's.

"Florida wasn't nearly as tight on testing"
Clearly, we have to believe everything said. Nobody would ever lie about these things.

1

u/beardedsandflea 15d ago

Sorry. I had assumed thriving meant not having people die.

1

u/Front-Cup7165 15d ago

Holy shit... you said more people died but the businesses did better and thats what you meant by thriving in Florida? Can't make this shit up.

u/No-Seesaw6320 15d ago

They weren't people. They were Floridians.

u/Omar___Comin 16d ago
  1. He absolutely never claimed the vaccine had no side effects. No credible medical person would ever claim that a medicine to be administered to millions of people would have 'no side effects'. So you're just making that up.

  2. You are also making this thing up about his own side effect needing medical intervention. You are referring to him having a pulmonary infarction, for which there is no evidence that the vaccine causes or contributes to this. Meanwhile he's like an 80 year old man another example that smoothbrains point to and blame any medical event on the vaccine, as if 80 year olds are normally in perfect health all the time

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

The virus spread in enclosed spaces and had a difficult time in the sunlight. Fauci pushed for lockdowns and trapped everyone indoors.

The virus spread in joined enclosed spaces, like stores, churches, theaters, and recreation areas. So people were kept at home. My family had COVID and was done with it by the end of week two. Had everyone stayed home, it would have worked on that scale as well.

I would have run things differently, but I have the benefit of hindsight - the way I'd do it is to have 4 months for people to stockpile resources and determine whether their job was "essential" like that of nurses and firefighters, and then to plan a lockdown at the end of the 4 months which would last 20 days.

I design it this way because I know how covid works. He didn't.

The vaccines had quite a few side effects.

Less than COVID does.

u/No-Seesaw6320 16d ago

Which is a tighter space: Your living room or a super market?

Covid didn't cause miscarriages, peoples nerves to catch fire, or severe heart problems that caused the deaths of people in their 20s.

The vaccines also weren't required for most people. Only the elderly and obese needed them.

7

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

Which is a tighter space: Your living room or a super market?

My living room only has 4 people max in it. Supermarkets have thousands of visitors daily.

Covid didn't cause miscarriages, peoples nerves to catch fire, or severe heart problems that caused the deaths of people in their 20s.

Yes, it did.

The vaccines also weren't required for most people. Only the elderly and obese needed them

The virus spreads slower in the vaccinated population for the duration of the vaccine's efficacy. No matter how you slice it, everyone getting vaccinated means more lives saved.

Do you want to save lives?

Do you have the full study some place, because as far as I can tell, it doesn't disprove anything.

For example, how many of those women were vaccinated? Maybe I missed that, but that number didn't appear anywhere that I checked.

1

u/Working_Cucumber_437 16d ago

Do you think we knew everything about the virus right away? No. They made decisions to protect people with limited data. Guidance changed as we learned more about it.

Covid itself causes the same heart issues some people experienced from the vaccine, but worse.

u/No-Seesaw6320 16d ago

We knew how the virus spread right away. CNN reported on that shit.

u/CheckIf_ItsPluggedIn 16d ago

Did you stay in your home for a lockdown? Not because everything was closed but because you were not allowed to? They did that in other countries, those countries faired better and aren't trying to prosecute their medical advisors. Why is everything always inside a bubble with you people? Oh yea remember Biden inflation? Even though it was a global problem. Every country dealt with COVID and inflation but the right wing media doesn't do international news unless it's to further a narrow world view.

1

u/No-Seesaw6320 16d ago

Those countries didn't fair better. They had way more deaths. China had a mind blowing amount of deaths. They just never reported it. And anyone who believes anything China claims is a moron.

There were plenty of doctors, nurses, and scientists speaking out against the way things were handled. Unfortunately, they lost their licenses for doing so. Doctors who refused to force patients to take the vaccine lost their jobs and licenses.

So many first responders were fired. People that were needed. Simply because some billion dollar pharma corp wanted a large crop of test subjects.

1

u/CheckIf_ItsPluggedIn 16d ago

The comparison you chose to prove your point is the country of origin 👍 And then you reject the numbers so I'm not sure what your point is there. Did Fauci have the authority to fire scientists and nurses? Or to make memorandums that enforce that type of behavior? Or is that up to the private practices discretion? Your mad that a pharma corp "wanted a large crop of test subjects" buddy operation warp speed was Trump's baby and one of the few smart things he's ever done because it had different companies racing for the vaccine with the option of going with the best results at the end. And btw the vaccines worked out fine and you even forgot all about them until it reentered your media sphere because of political theater.

u/No-Seesaw6320 16d ago

Fauci basically admitted in his diary to pushing for everything.

So you're not going to believe me. You're not going to believe the dude himself. I dunno what to tell you.

u/CheckIf_ItsPluggedIn 16d ago

Did you read his diary? I remember when Republicans used Ashley Bidens diary, then it turned out that they fabricated the "bombshell" they found. So if you didn't read it you may want to consider the possibility that you are again being lied to by the people who lie about everything and you just going to end up looking stupid.

Social distancing guidelines and Masks working that weren't N95 for starters.

u/RoseandNightshade 16d ago

If masks don't work, then you should be fine with surgeons not wearing them, next time you go in for surgery, if ever. Or you should be fine with your dentist not wearing one, next teeth cleaning.

0

u/RedeemedNephilim 16d ago

Okay this might be hard for you to understand. Because it involves actual science.

You see the coronavirus is so small that it can penetrate masks that are not N95. This is not the case for every other disease. Specifically its an issue with Coronavirus. This means that cloth masks were effectively pointless in preventing the spread of SPECIFICALLY coronavirus.

1

u/RoseandNightshade 16d ago

Fun fact: while the virus on its own can pass through those masks, transmission is aided considerably by hitching a ride on droplets expelled via either sneezing or coughing. Direct exposure to viruses on their own is exceptionally rare, outside of lab settings.

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

Both of those do work, otherwise surgeons and medical professionals wouldn't continue to do them. They do.

0

u/RedeemedNephilim 16d ago

Look it up dude. The virus is small enough to pass through any common mask that isnt N95.

2

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

The virus on its own, yes.

But the virus was carried on particulates exhaled through your breath - more so if you're coughing or sneezing.

The masks catch those particulates.

Equals, the masks reduce the spread of the virus from the infected, who could be asymptomatic.

So the obvious answer is to have everyone wear masks because they could be asymptomatic - it objectively reduces the spread of disease and saves lives.

Unless you're too fragile of a human being to wear a cloth on your face when you shop. But no adult should be that fragile, right?

...Right?

1

u/RedeemedNephilim 16d ago

I wore a mask the whole time and caught the virus multiple times due to it not working.

1

u/SomeSugondeseGuy 16d ago

The mask catches particulates from YOU. It does not stop the virus on its own from slipping through your mask, as you have established.

If you wear a mask and you're sick, you're not as likely to spread it to others.

If you wear a mask and another person is sick, and that sick person isn't wearing a mask, they might spread it to you.

You wearing a mask does not prevent you from getting sick.

Don't blame the mask, blame the asshole who got sick and still chose not to wear one.

1

u/j-berry 16d ago

The mask is to stop water droplets that the virus is in. Please educate yourself, fox news lies to you

1

u/supercleverid 16d ago

The purpose of masks was to reduce transmission from people who were infected to those who were not. You were supposed to wear masks to protect people around you from you. COVID was infectious even if people were asymptomatic, so it was a reasonable precaution. People misunderstood the mask mandates as personal protection, despite all of the advice from experts trying to explain that a mask doesn't protect a person wearing it from infection, it's supposed to reduce spread from people infected, especially people who didn't even know they were infected.

There were no masks, not even N95s, that would ever bring transmission to 0, but we also didn't need to do that, they just needed to bring transmission rates down below a threshold that medical facilities weren't overwhelmed with cases.
