New in PJ Media:
PBS has wasted more of your tax dollars on a lavish, loving American Masters documentary on America’s most famous (and notorious) physician, Dr. Anthony Fauci. It is set to premiere on Tuesday, and clips from it are already posted on PBS’ website. The far-Left propagandists of PBS invite us to “follow Dr. Anthony Fauci as he grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic and his 50-year career as the nation’s leading public health advocate.” Amid all the hagiography, however, the documentary contains a segment showing Fauci and Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser walking through Washington’s historic Anacostia neighborhood, which is 92% black, trying to sell residents on the COVID vaccine. To their surprise, it’s not as easy a sell as they clearly expected.
In the Anacostia segment, which was apparently filmed in 2021, we see Fauci telling a masked woman, as a baby cries in the background, “If you were to get infected you could pass the infection onto them. So you’re actually protecting your family by getting them vaccinated.” An unmasked woman standing behind the masked woman then responds with some facts that were quite clear already at that time, and are abundantly established by now: “Well, I heard that it doesn’t, um, cure it, and it doesn’t, um, stop you from getting it. So —”
Fauci then interrupts to say: “No! On the very, very, very rare chance that you do get it, even if you’re vaccinated, it’s a very — you don’t even feel sick, it’s like you don’t even know you got infected. It’s very, very good at protecting you.” Now we know, of course, that this is completely false. Back in November, Ben Bartee quoted a telling paragraph from a Washington Post article which, interestingly enough, has been erased from the version of the article that is currently on the Post’s website:
Fifty-eight percent of coronavirus deaths in August were people who were vaccinated or boosted, according to an analysis conducted for The Health 202 by Cynthia Cox, vice president at the Kaiser Family Foundation… It’s a continuation of a troubling trend that has emerged over the past year. As vaccination rates have increased and new variants appeared, the share of deaths of people who were vaccinated has been steadily rising.
That sort of information was widely suspected in 2021, and so the next man that Fauci and Bowser approach says: “The people in America are not settled with the information that’s been given to us right now. So I’m not gonna be lining up taking the shot or a vaccination for something that wasn’t clear in the first place, and then you all create a shot in miraculous time. It takes years to create vaccinations.”
There is more. Read the rest here.
