Fauci: CDC, Dr. Walensky Should Be Commended for Admitting Botched Covid Response

EXCERPT:

FAUCI: "And I think they should be commended in the fact, particularly Dr. Walensky, realizing and recognizing the shortcomings that have been there for quite a long time, long antedating Dr. Walensky’s tenure. And I think it was the stress and the challenge of a historic pandemic that brought some of those deficiencies into sharp relief. So I believe we should commend them for realizing that, particularly Dr. Walensky. There are very, very good people at the CDC. There was an issue with the culture of how they approach their responsibility as a public health agency that I think has now been recognized. So I’m actually optimistic that given the fact that the problems have now been recognized, that there’s a pathway to making a very good organization much better."
