Fauci: Officials Keeping an ‘Open Mind’ to Domestic Vaccine Requirement

Hannah Bleau 29 Dec 2021

Dr. Anthony Fauci on Wednesday said public health officials are maintaining an “open mind” when it comes to the prospect of implementing a domestic vaccine requirement, although he echoed Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) director Rochelle Walensky by asserting that it is not happening at this “particular time.”

Fauci made waves this week after suggesting that officials are open to requiring vaccines to travel on domestic flights.

“When you make vaccination a requirement, that’s another incentive to get more people vaccinated,” he said during an appearance on MSNBC on Monday. “If you want to do that with domestic flights, I think that’s something that seriously should be considered.”

When asked about this controversial topic during Wednesday’s press conference with the White House COVID-⁠19 Response Team and Public Health Officials, Fauci backed off a bit, making it clear that such a requirement is “on the table” but adding that they do not believe it is necessary at this moment due to masks and filtration on planes.

“I had said, and I’ll say it again, that we — when we talk about keeping America safe and keeping our citizens safe, everything that is an intervention is always on the table and always discussed. And we discuss it regularly on — literally on a daily and a weekly basis,” Fauci began.

“The difference between requiring a vaccination before you get on a plane to come from out of the country into the United States is for the obvious reason of keeping infection, particularly new variants, out of the country,” he continued, explaining that officials feel like the masking requirement and filtration on planes is “sufficient to keep people safe” for the time being.

If the vaccines are showing diminishing trrends in efficacy and you refuse to reformulate them to fit existing mutations... why is the goal to encourage more vaccinations when the goal should be to get them back to the level of efficacy they were advertised to have when they were introduced?

These vaccines are not behaving like ones with 95% efficacy and 80% uptake. Yet the line from public health and blue-state government officials is one of denial, as if the vaccines still work... and gaslighting, stating that the goal was never to break the chain of infection, even though that's what we spent most of 2020 and part of 2021 muzzled and separated to do, which also didn't work.

Someone has to ask this guy: "Is there ever a point where, we look at the data, we look at the results, and we say—look, none of this is working. There's nothing further we can do. We are sorry for putting you through all of this, you are free to live your lives again?"

If the answer is no, he needs to be dispatched.
