Förhör i Senaten: Dr. Anthony Faucis dagböcker – avslöjandena som skakar narrativet

Washington Week:

In the old days, in a less dysfunctional Washington, people would gather to do a postmortem of a tragic event and try to figure out a better government response. This is a little bit of a show right now.

What does it say about where we are politically in partisanship?
The historical analogy that leaps to mind is not a reason a bipartisan commission to look at lessons learned from a national tragedy, it is a witch hunt. It is mccarthyism. We do have a long history of that as well. And to see an 85-year-old public servant who spent 50 years of his life combating terrible diseases in this country and around the world, it was a painful site.

Especially to see a bunch of senators accuse Fauci and the best they could come up with was
a diary in which he was dazzled to meet celebrities and admitted that he butt dialed Barbra Streisand.

But in her view, such attacks on the man who once helped lead the federal COVID-19 response, combined with a hollowing out of agencies like the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, add up to a broader assault on the people and programs that keep Americans healthy.

"I think these hearings play into a larger picture," says Huberfeld, "which is that the field of public health has been devalued significantly by leadership right now. And that devaluing will make it much harder to do the work of public health and it will make it so that the public doesn't trust public health professionals."

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy has said the restructuring of his department was intended to save taxpayer money and streamline the agency's functions — in an effort to focus on administration priorities like combating chronic disease.

Dr. Georges Benjamin, the head of the American Public Health Association, says the consequences of the erosion to his field are already apparent. "We are less healthy," he says. "We've seen it every day, right? This inability to respond effectively to hantavirus, measles, cyclospora."

The results can quickly become dire — especially, states Huberfeld, now that this scenario is compounded by recent sweeping cuts and changes to health care. "I do think there will be more illness and injury, which leads to preventable death," she says.

We have seen that, when measles vaccination policies are relaxed, the expected herd immunity for any secondary infectious disease X can be lost owing to the proliferation of individuals affected by IA. In particular, under IA effects, the epidemic threshold is shifted so that severe outbreaks can take place even under extensive X vaccination. We have studied the conditions under which measles vaccination can prevent such outbreaks. To support the generality of our findings, we considered two different variants of the SIR-IA model: one in which all the state transitions are given by infectious/recovery processes, and a second version in which demographic effects are also taken into account. For both models, we were able to derive—under homogeneous-mixing assumptions—analytical expressions for the epidemic threshold in terms of the fraction of people vaccinated against measles, which were able to reproduce with significant accuracy the results obtained through simulations. Remarkably, the analytical results also allowed us to construct a full phase diagram in both models, where three distinct phases were found: quiescent, endemic/propagating and, more remarkably, IA-induced endemic/propagating phases.

As Fauci invoked his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent in the highly anticipated hearing Wednesday morning, Democrats declined to rebut arguments from Republicans that he helped cover up the origins of the pandemic and concealed his role in implementing lockdowns. Instead, they tried to redirect attention elsewhere. They said that committee chairman Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) arranged the hearing through a faulty process. They also blamed the Trump administration and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for the recent rise in measles cases.
