I am writing this as so many people with a (D) after their name say we need to heed Dr. Fauci’s warning and begin re-closing sectors of the economy and adding new restrictions. While many contend that Dr. Fauci’s opinion is based on science, we forget he has a horse in the race. Look at the increase in funding that his agency (NIAID) has received for tracking, research and everything related to the Wuhan Virus. The longer that the virus is perceived as a threat to the American people the longer he can justify to Congress and the American people the emergency funding and even increases for his agency. If the threat of the Wuhan virus dies down, this funding will most likely evaporate and his status and TV exposure vanish. Hence, it is prudent that one carefully review the actual science and not Dr. Fauci’s remarks or opinions. He may be right about the increase of the spread, but he has not had a robust track record predicting the virus so far. The hysteria he can create with his opinions without much scientific basis will ruin the lives and finances of millions of hard working Americans. The money in terms of billions of dollar in tax-payer money to his agency cannot justify the potential ruin of our neighbors and economy.
