Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., has released the private diaries of Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and chief government spokesperson during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fauci’s Private Thoughts
The released documents show Fauci privately confronted possibilities about the virus’s origins that he publicly downplayed. On Jan. 31, 2020, he recorded that scientists considered deliberate insertion of the virus possible and agreed it required further expert review, despite later public recommendations suggesting the contrary.
Fauci later privately questioned CDC and FDA competence, admitted officials had overstated mask ineffectiveness, and repeatedly described testing and supply failures.
