The New York Times is pivoting away from its glorification of former top Covid adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci to muster up a semblance of critical questioning that should have been its job throughout the Covid pandemic.
The Times, of course, softens the blow of confronting the man that publications like itself made the “face” of the Covid pandemic. He became to many liberal observers the “Science” of Covid-19, rather than a deeply conflicted public health official with a penchant for making contradictory statements and troubling ties to the Wuhan lab where the virus likely originated.

But instead of confronting Dr. Fauci over his ever-shifting positions, Big Pharma’s incestuous ‘royalties‘ relationship with the National Institutes of Health, and the hard science backing up Covid policy recommendations on everything from general masking to the risk to children to the effectiveness of vaccines in stopping infection and the spread, ‘mainstream’ publications like the Times tended to regurgitate advice from the public health industry.
In the Times interview conducted by David Wallace-Wells and Dr. Anthony Fauci, there are a number of intriguing passages worth highlighting and discussing. However, for the sake of conciseness, only a few of the most remarkable admissions will be highlighted below.
Dr. Anthony Fauci was at the forefront of advocating for the use of masks and associated mandates throughout much of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, his stance on masks has evolved over time, with conflicting statements and changing recommendations.
Initially, Dr. Fauci confidently stated that masks were ineffective and unnecessary for the general population, citing scientific evidence and research that supported this view. However, without new data or evidence, he quickly changed his position, declaring masks as a vital tool to prevent the spread of COVID-19. He explained away his deception of the public by stating that he was trying to stop a purported mask shortage. But in private emails, he conceded that a typical mask was “not really effective in keeping out virus.”
