Video: Fauci resigns post

STORY: US scientist Anthony Fauci announces his resignation from his post as adviser to President Joe Biden. The infectious diseases expert announced that he would also be stepping down from other offices, such as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, in December. He doesn’t want to retire but wants to focus on other things. For many US citizens, Fauci was the face of the government in the fight against Covid during the height of the pandemic. However, he also had to take heavy criticism from Trump and many conservatives. Fauci did not shy away from criticizing politicians for simplifications and generalizations. Here, for example, at a Senate hearing by Republican Senator Rand Paul on the origin of viruses. PAUL: “If you take an animal virus and increase its transmissibility to humans, are you saying that’s not ‘gain of function’?” FAUCI: “Yes, I do. And Senator Paul, you don’t know what you’re talking about, frankly! President Biden said in a statement that he knew the American people and the world at large continue to benefit from Dr. Fauci’s expertise become, no matter what he will deal with next.
