Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, thoroughly embarrassed Republican Senator Rand Paul during a Senate testimony Wednesday after Paul suggested that New Yorks covid-19 low infection rate is due to herd immunity. Fauciin his raspy Brooklyn broguepolitely called out the Senators idiocy.
Youve lauded New York for their policy, Paul said during the Senate Health Committee hearing about the nations pandemic response. New York had the highest death rate in the world. How can we possibly be jumping up and down and saying, Oh, Governor Cuomo did a great job!? He had the worst death rate in the world.
No, youve misconstrued that, Senator, and youve done that repetitively in the past, Fauci said. Right now... the things that are going on in New York to get their test positivity one percent or less is because theyre looking at the guidelines we have put together from the task force... masks, social distancing, outdoors more than indoors, avoiding crowds, and washing hands.

Or, Paul interrupted. Theyve developed enough community immunity that theyre no longer having the pandemic because they have enough immunity in New York City to actually stop it.

Paul's developed an immunity to anything intelligent.
