    Fauci’s emails reveal chaos, confusion on Covid during Trump administration-Reports

    (GNB Desk)- The Washington Post and Buzzfeed News publish thousands of pages of emails from White House medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci’s inbox, spanning from January to June 2020, which were obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.

    The Washington Post obtained 866 pages of Anthony Fauci’s emails from March and April 2020, revealing how the top infectious disease expert and White House medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci had to deal early weeks of the pandemic under the Trump administration.

    Similarly, Buzzfeed News obtained more than 3,200 pages of emails  through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by BuzzFeed News — covering the period from January to June 2020 — provide a rare glimpse into how Fauci approached his job during the biggest health crisis of the last century, showing him dealing directly with the public, health officials, reporters, and even celebrities.

    Fauci’s frustration can be spotted in the emails where he has mentioned the phrase “crazy people in this world” while talking about leaders who had politicised this pandemic for their personal gain.

    His emails also reveal his correspondence with Bill Gates’ foundation, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, legendary actor Morgan Freeman and many more.

    While Freeman offered to use his social media accounts to spread information about COVID-19, Zuckerberg talked about creating an information hub on Facebook regarding the symptoms, tests, effects and vaccinations for coronavirus.

    Gates and Fauci talked about a “collaborative and hopefully synergistic approach to Covid-19” with the help of Gates’ foundation.

    “This is White House in full overdrive and I am in the middle of it,” Fauci wrote in a February 2 email published by BuzzFeed. “Reminiscent of post-anthrax days.”

    Dr. Fauci told the Washington Post that he would receive approximately 1,000 emails a day from colleagues, politicians, medical workers, foreign governments and strangers.

    Fauci said that he was getting every single kind of question, mostly people who were a little bit confused about the mixed messages that were coming out of the White House and wanted to know what’s the real scoop.

    On March 28, George Gao, director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, emailed Fauci, shortly after Science magazine quoted Gao saying that the U.S. was making a “big mistake” by not recommending that people wear masks.

    “I saw the Science interview, how could I say such a word ‘big mistake’ about others? That was journalist’s wording. Hope you understand … Let’s work together to get the virus out of the earth,” Gao said.

    “Thanks for the note, I understand completely. No problem. We will get through this together,” Fauci responded.

    In another email on April 8, Gao expressed concern about Fauci’s well-being: “I saw some news (hope it is fake) that [you] are being attacked by some people. Hope you are well under such [an] irrational situation.”

    “Thank you for your kind note. All is well despite some crazy people in this world,” Fauci emailed back.

    Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.) emailed Fauci explaining why some of his Republican colleagues were trying to block money for the U.S. pandemic response. He then told Fauci to “keep being a science truth teller,” at a time when Republican lawmakers and former President Trump were skeptical about the threat of the coronavirus.

    “Thanks, Fred. I appreciate your note,” Fauci responded a few hours later.

    An antiterrorism and insider threat officer in the Office of the Surgeon General in the Army, whose name was redacted, asked Fauci a series of clarifying questions on the virus on April 14, and called the infectious disease expert “the voice of reason for millions of concerned citizens.”

    The officer also asked Fauci a personal question: “[W]hat keeps you up at night, regarding COVID-19?”

    “I have said in the past that what keeps me up at night is the possibility of a pandemic respiratory infection. We are in that now, and what keeps me up at night is the response, a major part of which is the development of an effective vaccine and treatments for COVID-19,” Fauci wrote back.

    When he was informed a White House press briefing was canceled on April 21, Fauci responded: “Yikes………. That would make 4 days in a row without a Press Conference for me” — before adding a pair of smiling emojis.

    Fauci frequently clashed with former President Trump, whose misinformation he was forced to publicly contradict. Fauci was eventually sidelined and rarely spoke to Trump toward the end of the administration.

    Fauci was amazed by the public fascination with his persona. He received a Google News alert for his name, with one article titled “‘Cuomo Crush’ and ‘Fauci Fever’ — Sexualization of These Men Is a Real Thing on the Internet.” He then forwarded that email to someone, telling them to click on that article: “It will blow your mind. Our society is totally nuts.”

    A colleague emailed him an article with the headline, “Fauci socks, Fauci doughnuts, Fauci fan art: The coronavirus expert attracts a cult following.”

    Fauci replied to that email: “Truly surrealistic. Hopefully, this all stops soon”.
