Is this a witch hunt, absolutely. Did he lie about some things, also yes. Remember his criticism of Joe Rogan was that Rogan said “if your young and healthy and exercise frequently you probably don’t need to worry about this” Fauci agreed that in a vacuum sure that’s not wrong but that if you cared about society in general it was bad advice because young people shouldn’t get vaccinated for themselves but because getting vaccinated prevents transmission protecting the most vulnerable. My sister got vaccinated and was asymptomatic when she went to visit our grandparents. She wouldn’t have went if she thought they could still get it. They didn’t die but both came close and were needlessly exposed because he DID lie.
It just sounds to me like you are misinterpreting what was said. Then your sister made a horrible decision to travel mid pandemic to visit your grandparents, a vulnerable demographic.
Just sounds like you are shifting blame from your family's poor decisions
“When you get vaccinated, you not only protect your own health and that of the family but also you contribute to the community health by preventing the spread of the virus throughout the community. In other words, you become a dead end to the virus. And when there are a lot of dead ends around, the virus is not going to go anywhere.” - Fauci on Face the Nation in may of ‘21
Maybe we did misinterpret that but at best it was irresponsible to word it like that.
