My Fauci Deep Dive
Any retrospective on Fauci has to start in the 1980's with the arrival of HIV/AIDS
Initially, Fauci was the target for the frustration of the Gay community which was being disproportionately affected by AIDS
Ultimately Fauci agreed to fast-track treatments:
With the arrival of Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy (HAART), the tide in the battle against AIDS
There's also plenty of criticism to accompany Fauci's management of the AIDS crisis
AIDS Controversy: HIVNET
Fauci also received criticism from notable scientists saying that it is not proven that HIV causes AIDS
I think it's very unlikely that HIV doesn't cause AIDS
Since then, Fauci has remained at the NAIAD through 6 presidents- his 4 predecessors served terms of 9, 7, 9, and 9 years
This one's even better!
I remember a few years when Gates announced his "Decade of Vaccines"
Not so bad yet, but then we get to the gain of function research (GoF)
Ralph Baric
Peter Daszak, Ecohealth
Now, let's get to Covid-19
Next, together with NIH Director Francis Collins and Larry Corey from FredHutch, they created the US Covid-19 Strategy
But then new information started coming out
What happens next is remarkable because the Fauci from March/April becomes Gollum from LOTR protecting his precious Vaccine
Sorry, but my entire thread didn't post for some reason
Another problem emerges: herd immunity appears to work
To really understand what's going on I looked at NIAID funding of projects in 2019 and 2020
This is strange
And now the bombshells: 2020
It gets worse!
Fauci has lost his way
I mean Ahab Fauci wants to defeat AIDS before he retires
Obviously this doesn’t look great for Fauci
Awarding of science grants needs to become decentralized and transparent
I hope this thread will inform people about the need to reform our public health institutions
One of the biggest things that bothers me is how NIAID funding is just slightly less than the National Cancer Institute
What I write is controversial, but easily verified
The budget for therapeutics is only 11% of the total C19 projects in the top 36
Even worse 75% of that budget went towards clinical trials for Lilly’s monoclonalal antibody treatment
This is what Kary Mullis, Nobel Laureate and inventor of PCR, thinks about Anthony Fauci You can follow @gummibear737.

America's most famous public health expert:
-Exalted deity to some
-Embodiment of evil to others
What's the truth?
It's complicated...
It starts slow, but boy does it get good
Please RT this first tweet if you learned something new and interesting
1
A trained immunologist, he was named director of the National Institute for Allergens and Infections Disease (NAIAD) in 1984, and has held this position since (36 yrs)
AIDS was his first test
2
Many were dying and treatments were not coming fast enough
Larry Kramer famously penned this critique of Fauci: https://www.villagevoice.com/2020/05/28/an-open-letter-to-dr-anthony-fauci/ …
3
"If I had a disease in which the result was that I would die no matter what, and the government was telling me, You can't try anything that might work under any circumstances, I'd be ramming down the doors, too"
4
It was no longer a death sentence, it became a manageable chronic illness
Today, Fauci is viewed as a hero by the HIV/AIDS community
5
I lived through it as a child and it was quite scary at the time
Fauci is responsible for creating a lot of the panic during the 80's
It's almost like he really craves media attention...
6
HIVNET 012: a poorly run clinical trial run in Uganda was used to as the basis to green light Nevirapine
This clinical trial did not have a control!
Whistle-blower Jonathan Fishbein was fired when he expressed concerns

Reduction in deaths after HAART treatment seems clear
Anyways, Birx and Redfield also came up working on AIDS
But their history is a bit more checkered with accusations of data misrepresentation
9
https://edition.cnn.com/2020/06/04/politics/cdc-redfield-aids-walter-reed-army-investigation/index.html …
He's been front and center with SARS, Bird Flu, Swine Flu, MERS, and Ebola outbreaks
And he knows the political game...Here: sending his love to Hillary
10
Hillary's speech on "Global Health" brought Fauci to tears!
Global Health is a strange concept because one would expect your federal and local government health experts to be concerned about their citizens' health
Globalists sure like global stuff😉
11
Since, there's been this strange intersection between The Gates Foundation, the NIAID and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center
The triumvirate's been very active during C19
12
https://www.gatesfoundation.org/Media-Center/Press-Releases/2010/12/Global-Health-Leaders-Launch-Decade-of-Vaccines-Collaboration …
Here we start seeing a link between NIAID, Ralph Baric (UNC Chapel Hill), and Dr Shi Zhengli (Wuhan Lab) with Peter Daszak (Ecohealth) in the middle
Baric+Shi made a GoF virus
13
https://www.nature.com/articles/nm.3985 …
-$25 covering 121 grants since 2001 to study coronavirus/SARS
-does GoF research
-remdesivir link
Shi Zhengli
-Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, biosafety lv 4
-does GoF research
-received funding via Ecohealth from NIAID
14
-received $7.8 mil since 2008 for bat coronavirus GoF research
NIAID funded, no direct Fauci link
I think (w/o conspiratorial intent)
-gain of function research is dangerous
-it's fair to question what role these actors may have played in C19 genesis
15
First issue, he used the IC model from Ferguson to convince Trump to lockdown
"The steep curve with 2.2 million deaths was not from Dr. Fauci, however, but from Neal Ferguson’s team at Imperial College"
16
https://www.cato.org/blog/did-mitigation-save-two-million-lives …
They wrote this paper to detail their plan
They convinced Trump to mobilize govt, pharma and academia to go all in on a vaccine
17
https://science.sciencemag.org/content/368/6494/948 …
-IFR wasn't 2-3%, probably 10X lower
-Most people weren't at risk
-Lots of asymptomatics
-Some people started claiming that cheap drugs like the Drug Which Shall Not Be Named (DWSNBN) work
Time to adjust strategy?
Nope, never!
18
He goes hard after DWSNBN:
-trashes any positive study
-declares it doesn't work
-shuts down the most important trial in June
19
Please keep reading, the good part is yet to come
19A
Big problem!
Solution:
-New Religion: Masks and lock-downs
-Trash Sweden and herd immunity
-Deny pre-existing immunity
Here we see Gollum Fauci as he's challenged by @RandPaul on these
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkVA4yb4ugY …
20
First I looked at 2019 where $4.9 billion was awarded to 6947 projects
I analyzed the top 200 and was surprised to find 37% of the budget was devoted to HIV/AIDS
21
HIV is now treatable
Only 13,000 people die from it
Why is AIDS disproportionately funded vs. actual public health risk it represents?
Maybe Fauci is Captain Ahab and AIDS is his Moby Dick
At 79, is this more about his legacy than public health?
22
NIAID got $700 mil more for COVID
I looked at top 236 projects: 36 C19-related, 200 others
1) 81% of the C19 budget is for a vaccines
2) Therapeutics are an afterthought
3) No budget for repurposing existing drugs
All the eggs in vax basket!!!
23
HIV/AIDS research increased 38% compared to '19
Of the top 200 non-C19 projects, AIDS now accounts for 57% of the budget!?
Remember the Fred Hutchinson Research Center (Seattle, WA)?
11 C19+AIDS FredHutch projects got 24% of the funds of top 236 projects
24
He is interested in achieving his goals:
-Gollum Fauci wants his Vaccine to save humanity
-Ahab Fauci wants to find a cure or vaccine before he retires
Follow the money and you will see what people's priorities are
25
Also NIAID partnered with Moderna on the development of their mRNA vaccine
This is extremely controversial because no human mRNA vaccine has ever succeeded
Many scientists are skeptical
Risk of autoimmunity disease
26
The question is, why have we allowed centralized decision making to dictate science?
Don’t be surprised when you make Fauci King for life and then he starts behaving that way
Why is one small group dictating science priorities?
27
I don’t know if Duesberg was right about HIV not causing AIDS, but he shouldn’t have been blackballed
He was one of the top young scientists then
Settled science is not science
28
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Duesberg …
Allocation of budgets needs to be based on health needs of population, not on bureaucratic ambitions
I’ll continue to post in this thread, a lot is still on the cutting room floor
29
We have a 40% chance of developing cancer and a 21% chance of dying from cancer
Seems like a bigger priority than AIDS/HIV
30
https://www.cancer.org/cancer/cancer-basics/lifetime-probability-of-developing-or-dying-from-cancer.html …
Areas of attack: “you only looked at top projects”
-small projects-the grants enter the “other category” - basic science + research
-small budgets don’t yield actionable data
Curious if any journalist or politicians will RT
31
So the 200k+ who have died so far were not that important afterall
This budget should have been used on repurposed drug studies because new therapeutics take far longer with clinical trials
32
How could they know this is one?
They could have run RCTs on DWSNBN, Ivermectin, Zinc, Vit D, Bromhexine, etc. for a fraction of the cost
33
https://projects.propublica.org/coronavirus-contracts/contracts/HHSN272201700078C …
This has been obvious for quite some time now
