Changes

'''Anthony Stephen Fauci, M.D.''' is the current head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the [[National Institutes of Health]]. He has held that position since 1983, and has been a federal employee since 1968. Fauci is possibly the highest-paid employee in the U.S. government, earning $417,600 a year plus lavish benefits and royalties. Fauci's policies appear to be a disastrous mixture of [[socialism]] and [[scientism]], sometimes called "Faucism", which infringes on basic freedoms while increasing government controls that have resulted in the [[U.S.]] having one of the highest rates of [[COVID-19]] mortality in the world.

Fauci's approach to [[COVID-19]] has been a complete failure by downplaying, denying, and even allowing obstruction of early treatment which has been successful in poorer countries that have held their mortality rates far lower than in the [[U.S.]] under [[Fauci]]'s [[socialism|socialistic]] approach.

As head of the NIAID, Fauci doles out millions of dollars in research grants.  Fauci approved a grant for [[gain of function]] research to the [[Wuhan Institute of Virology]] (WIV).  The grant was not approved by a mandatory oversight board.<ref>Also known as P3CO or Potential Pandemic Preparedness Care and Oversight. https://www.nationalreview.com/news/hhs-board-never-approved-wuhan-institute-of-virology-research-grant/</ref>
