In May 2021, Fauci claimed on MSNBC that the COVID-19 vaccine stopped transmission:

"When the virus gets to you, you stop it."

Yet data at the time showed antibody levels were rapidly falling. His story would soon unravel.

Fauci knew this. Why did he hide the truth?

The story of rapidly falling antibodies is a fascinating one.

This NEJM study from December 3, 2020, published by scientists at Fauci's own NIAID, claims that antibody levels are "durable".

Yet it presented these levels on a logarithmic scale.

Just months later, researchers re-analyzed these exact same data, found a 65-day half-life, and came to the exact opposite conclusion, publishing it in Nature Medicine.

In his latest Kamala campaign speech, Obama implies that if Trump followed his pandemic playbook, implementing stricter measures, deaths would have been the same as Canada, with 400,000 fewer.

Obama is lying to score political points.👇

To be clear, Obama's claims are impossible.

Obama's 2016 pandemic playbook did not specify what measures should be used against a pathogen like SARS-CoV-2, or indeed, against any pathogen.

It provides no guidance as to what specific mitigation decisions should be made.

The first 41 pages merely specify how the pandemic response should be coordinated administratively and how agencies should work together.

They provide very rough guidelines about what kinds of assessments should be done, leaving the rest up to the experts involved.

The media is making the same exact error with bird flu.

For example, @celinegounder commits this error in a recent @statnews piece when she writes:

"Based on prior human infections, it’s estimated that the mortality rate for H5N1 avian flu among humans may be above 50%."

And she is not alone. A recent @newsweek piece poses the ridiculous question:

This week @nypost published my latest opinion piece.

I argue that the government's potential response to bird flu is a much larger threat to America than bird flu itself.

In this thread I will explain the science behind my piece in more detail.

🧵

The first issue is the massive overinflation of risk. The expert class did this with swine flu and Covid. And they're doing this with bird flu.

And in the process, they're working up a frenzy--a frenzy that could end up doing a lot of harm--and making a lot of money.

As I wrote about swine flu:

George Orwell writing in 1943

I was recently dismissed from medical school on trumped up charges using a rigged hearing process because of my publicly stated views on Covid.

I have never had any disciplinary action against me but suddenly had a dozen+ filed in 6 months.

I was kicked off campus multiple times. Deans spread rumors about me to students who were on social media, who then spread these rumors online. Normal conversations would be misinterpreted out of recognition. I faced some allegations that the admins refused to even specify.

Ernest Ramirez’s 16-yo son died 5 days after receiving the Pfizer COVID vaccine.

FEMA then contacted Mr. Ramirez and offered to pay for his son’s burial so long as he would report that he died from COVID, not the vaccine.
