Dr. Fauci's Senate testimony

David Berkowitz was hearing things too.

Another call for a cite for this bizarre claim.

I’d like to see your cite as well.

As the poster in question said in an anti-vax movie thread (paraphrasing) - Since you’re now talking about it, I win. At least I assume that’s his attitude here.

If I have time later I will look.

Yes, the sources I listen to are not always credible but, sometimes they are. It is difficult for me to find mainstream sources that people will not just dismiss offhand as “fake news”.

The comment was more if anyone else has heard of this.

From the hearing:

“The mortality per capita in Sweden is actually less than France, less than Italy, less than Spain, less than Belgium, less than the Netherlands, about the same as Switzerland.” - Rand Paul

Senator Rand Paul throws in a minor lie to help bolster his case. Sweden’s per capita death rate, at the time of the hearing, is about the same as the Netherlands and way less than Switzerland.

Today’s numbers push Sweden ahead of the Netherlands. They are now ranked 9th in the world for per capita deaths and ranked 6th among countries with more than 1 million people.

The hell it was:

The only request in your post was for the doctor to respond to your unsubstantiated rumor.
If you have time to repeat your unsubstantiated rumor then you have time to provide your source, so let’s have it.

Look for reputable ones.

He’s just trying to bait posters into catching warnings.

I found it on Gateway Pundit and a bunch of anti-vas sites.

I’m pretty sure that Dr Fauci has better things to do than waste his time with this bullshit.

A source can’t be credible “sometimes”. A source is either credible or not.

“Fake news” is your side’s pet phrase, which y’all have twisted to mean “news that we don’t want to hear” instead of “news that just isn’t true”.

They’re all the same: no deferens at all between any of those sites!

It can be credible about some things and not others.

Congress wants testimony from a senior executive branch member and subject matter expert related to a major crisis facing the country. It is a crisis that Congress will likely need to continue to intervene in legislatively. I suppose they could just defer all responsibility to the executive branch without any oversight. I generally prefer they at least go through the motions of doing the jobs they were elected to do.

Urine trouble now. :wink:

I thought he was the Emperor Ming the Merciless.

UrbenRedneck, I’m not sure I buy this line of reasoning.

A different moderator, perhaps a more suspicious and cynical moderator, might think you were attempting to derail the discussion away from information that is potentially damaging to your preferred political persuasion.

From here on out, if rumormongering, please bring cites for debate and - potentially - embarrassing destruction.

I hope that’s clear.

Instruction for everyone going forward:

Discussion of Fauci’s supposed ‘connections’ with any Chinese lab conspiracy theories need to come with rock solid citations including why his connection is somehow sinister. Otherwise, leave it be in this thread.

Are there any photos of them together? Think about it!

Ah ha!
