The fall of Fauci

In light of news that a planned museum exhibit on Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has been defunded by the Department of Government Efficiency, it’s worth considering how far “America’s doctor” has fallen from grace.

In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, the diminutive doctor enjoyed wide acclaim across American life. Actress Julia Roberts called him her “personal hero.” Jon Stewart, Rosie O’Donnell, and Michael Moore all referred to him as “Saint Anthony.” Even conservatives spoke of him in glowing terms.

Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan echoed Gingrich that same month: “Dr. Fauci is one of the top public health experts in the world. We should all be listening to his advice.”

Time magazine selected “Fauci and Frontline Health Workers” for its “Guardians of the Year” distinction in 2020, and TV host Jimmy Kimmel wrote the blurb: “[Fauci] delivers the truth, as difficult as it may be to hear, earnestly and with one goal: to save lives. His courage and candor have earned our trust. We are all fortunate to have a man of his wisdom, experience, and integrity to help us navigate these difficult waters.”

But in the subsequent five years, one revelation after another dispelled Fauci the legend and revealed Fauci the man.
