1. Oh dear.

I hope his symptoms are mild and that he recovers quickly.

5. From what I've read, they are.

Obviously, he’s vaxxed, with two boosters.

Just waiting for the Fox crowd to start with their “Vaccines don’t work” shit.

The vaccine is not a cure. All it does is boost the immune system and mitigate symptoms if you do get it. Funny that you never hear the same charge against the flu vaccine.

6. You know they'll make something outta this.

They try to twist you up by bastardizing anything good, bad or otherwise.

12. I hate

That that was one of my first thoughts too

2. Speedy recovery, Dr. Fauci.

3. I may have some long covid. My eyes are screwed up more than usual.

I did a double take. That it read: 'Dr. Freud tested positive for covid".

I need help. Good God!

Hi, Mal.

[Hekate]

4. Damn. This is a long siege.

Get well soon, Dr Fauci.

8. Was he still wearing his N95 masks or did he switch to a lesser quality one?

It's sad that he let his guard down and caught Covid at this point.

9. Seriously?

11. Do you have any support for this claim...

…that he let his guard down?

[liberal_mama]

15. I don't have any proof that he has let his guard down recently, but I know he attended the Gridiron

Dinner superspreader event. He decided not to go to the White House Correspondence Dinner, out of Covid concerns, so apparently he had his guard back up after the disastrous Gridiron dinner. I'm just curious to see what kind of mask he was wearing.

I realize that you can still get Covid, even with a good mask. However, I'm a member of a large mask nerd online group where we fit test masks, discuss mask ratings, and get into indepth discussion about proper masking techniques and very few people of the group have ever had Covid. One member I know did, but that' because he let his guard down and went to am indoor restaurant a few times.

Fauci gave a graduation speech at NYC college a couple weeks ago and he was photographed several times in a mask that he removed when he spoke. Yet later that day, he was photographed maskless in a large group of people. So he did appear to still wear a mask and take precautions sometimes.

13. You can easily get COVID despite taking full precautions

Keeping your guard up helps, but nothing is perfect outside of complete quarantine.

14. People don't understand how statistics work

They really don't get that not everything is black and white, and that most things in life are a matter of probability. They can't wrap their heads around the fact that "million to one" things happen for every 999,999 that don't.

10. Get well soon, Doctor!

Need you back in the Good Fight!
