The pardon, retroactive to Jan. 1, 2014, addresses “any offenses” Fauci committed during this period, including in his former capacities as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, member of the White House COVID-19 Response Team and chief medical adviser to Biden.
In the final minutes of his administration, former President Joe Biden preemptively pardoned Dr. Anthony Fauci, in what The New York Times called “an extraordinary effort by an outgoing president to derail political prosecutions by an incoming president.”

The fact that Fauci’s pardon specifically and explicitly addresses his Covid-related offenses, while being backdated to 2014—the year the gain-of-function ban took effect, which Fauci circumvented by outsourcing experiments to China—speaks volumes as to what this is really about. pic.twitter.com/rRI4fXsx5E

Fauci told The Hill he will accept the pardon.
“Issuance of these pardons should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense,” Biden said, according to ABC News. “Our nation owes these public servants a debt of gratitude for their tireless commitment to our country.”
Biden said the pardon was a response to “exceptional circumstances” within which public servants like Fauci “have been subjected to ongoing threats and intimidation for faithfully discharging their duties.”
“Even when individuals have done nothing wrong — and in fact have done the right thing — and will ultimately be exonerated, the mere fact of being investigated or prosecuted can irreparably damage reputations and finances,” Biden said, according to the Times.
Preemptive pardons aren’t unprecedented, but they’re rare, said Children’s Health Defense CEO Mary Holland. Holland questioned the need for a preemptive pardon, given that there hasn’t been a criminal investigation or any criminal conviction.
