I don't know why you're being downvoted. Fauci made his political name pushing for a public policy response to AIDS that looks extremely similar to what he's rolled out against covid.

Yet it's been decried ever since as a mistake being based on fear rather than science, pushing stigma on segments of population in the name of compliance, and being so "overly cautious" that the damages (medical and social) far outweighed the benefits, even with its limited implementation.

Why does that sound so familiar?

The down votes are part of the whole cancel culture aspect of any critical thinking about COVID.

History repeats itself.

Medical tyranny and cancel culture is just one form and the latest form of tyranny.
