America's most frustrating - and annoying - infectious disease
'expert' hinted that he might retire soon due to falling COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, suggesting the pandemic might finally be over.
Dr Anthony Fauci, 81, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease and adviser to President Joe Biden, told ABC's Start Here podcast that he is considering retiring as COVID cases drop and restrictions have been lifted across the country.
'I have said that I would stay in what I'm doing until we get out of the pandemic phase and I think we might be there already if we can stay this,' Fauci said. 'I don't have any plans right now to go anywhere, but you never know. I can't stay at this job forever.'
Fauci has served as public health expert for more than 50 years and has advised every American president since Ronald Reagan, becoming the nation's top COVID mouthpiece while drawing criticism over the nation's handling of the pandemic.

BA2 is a bit worse than BA1 (regular Omicron) but be glad we don't YET have BA2.2, which is the deadly one, and is sweeping Asia. Hong Kong, Thailand, S. Korea, Singapore. Cases are skyrocketing, older folks dying left and right. China denies most of it, but has cities of millions in total lockdown.
ReplyDelete"On Thursday, South Korea recorded its deadliest day during the pandemic, with 429 deaths in a 24-hour period. The Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency reported 621,328 cases (1 percent of the population of 50 million), another daily record and a 55 percent increase from 400,730 the day before." Yes, you read that right. More than a million cases in just 2 days, 2% of the population. And their foolish response is to give people another round of the jabs that don't work and weaken the immune system.
