No ,you are uninformed and ignorant. Again educate yourself before acting a fool. You fail to mention that Fauci eventually became a respected ally by engaging with activists and “doing more listening than talking,” Georges Benjamin, the executive director of the American Public Health Association, who has worked with Fauci since 1990.
Fauci ultimately helped change the way the government handled clinical drug trials, increasing the number of patients who had access to experimental HIV treatments. He later worked with President George W. Bush to design a global program to provide treatment to people with HIV, which “may be the most impactful thing I have done in my career,” he told Politico last month.
The program, known as PEPFAR, saved an estimated 21 million lives across more than 50 countries. Bush awarded Fauci the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2008, five years after the program’s launch.
Today, HIV/AIDS patients can live for years with the disease, and prevent transmission with daily drug therapies. While there is no HIV vaccine yet, Fauci continues to lead efforts to develop one.
“If he weren’t retiring in December, I’d imagine him working to his very last breath until there was a cure for AIDS,” Dr. Gregg Gonsalves, an associate professor of epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health and longtime AIDS activist, wrote Tuesday in The New York Times.
