Harrop: Fauci's good deeds punished with mockery, needless deaths

By Froma Harrop / syndicated columnist

Good-bye, Dr. Fauci. You did your job while under attack from the worst sort of people.

You devoted more than 50 years to public health. As director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, you led us through HIV/AIDS, Ebola, covid, respiratory syncytial virus and, every year, seasonal flu.

You say your “proudest moment” was your work with President George W. Bush on the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. PEPFAR is credited with having saved 20 million lives. Twenty million lives.

That doesn’t include the lives saved from your work in the late ’70s and early ’80s developing treatments for inflammatory and autoimmune-related diseases. Several that would have previously been death sentences are now in high remission.
