Former Chief Medical Advisor to the President of United States, former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, a physician-scientist and an immunologist but he gets sick?
There’s something fishy here.
Yeah I’m seeing a lot of trolls from the world instance. Kind of annoying really.
CBS News’ chief medical correspondent, Dr. Jonathan LaPook, wrote in a social media post that he spoke Saturday with Fauci, who said he was likely infected from a mosquito bite that he got in his backyard.
There are no vaccines to prevent West Nile, or medicines to treat it. As of Aug. 20, the CDC had recorded 216 cases in 33 states this year. It’s best prevented by avoiding mosquito bites.

who said he was likely infected from a mosquito bite that he got in his backyard.
“Dr. Fauci was hospitalized about ten days ago after developing fever, chills, and severe fatigue,” the post on X said. It said Fauci spent a week in the hospital.
Actually, it might. I thought mosquitos were attracted to the co2 from our breath. So the masks might help reduce how far they can smell you.
Dr. Fauci rocks and I gratefully appreciate how he was there for us all during a difficult time.
For me he made me feel better not scared because I knew someone who knew what they were talking about was in the room.
He came on tv and explained what all the research was saying in a way that I think most people could digest and understand. When it became clear that masks were a huge help in stopping the spread I was definitely relieved because before then we were just guessing.
It’s unfortunate that the news he shared wasn’t what people wanted to hear and it required us to make sacrifices that none of us wanted.
We learned a lot.
Lol censor since brainwashed so badly, are you still convinced there are WMDs in Iraq?
