Part 2: A Few Nuggets from the New Best-selling Book by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The Real Anthony Fauci, from Skyhorse Publishing
Part one follows at the bottom - once part three is complete, we'll rearrange a final post.
By Dr. William H. Gaunt (NMD)
This article covers highlights from the second hundred pages of this 445-page book. Readers are encouraged to use the page references to read before and after the quotes to put things in context and to track down the references if more information is desired. My comments will appear in parentheses.
Review of Part 1
- Regulatory agencies have been captured by the pharmaceutical industry they are supposed to regulate. The result is a relationship that greatly benefits Big Pharma and harms the public.
- Safe, effective, and inexpensive medicines for early treatment of COVID-19 were and still are aggressively suppressed and made unavailable in the U.S. while several other countries are saving many lives using these same medicines. Why? Because these medicines (HCQ and IVM) would compete with COVID-19 vaccines and favored COVID medicines that generate big profits.
- The deadly, expensive, and ineffective drug Remdesivir has been promoted as the favored COVID-19 treatment in hospitals.
- VAERS is intentionally ineffective at identifying vaccine injuries and deaths. Efforts to improve VAERS have been blocked.
- Fauci has been deeply involved in all of the above. It makes sense when we realize that his first priority is to do whatever is best for Big Pharma. More on this topic in Part 2.
Ignoring Chronic Allergic and Autoimmune Diseases
On page 122, Kennedy describes what has happened: “Dr. Fauci has done almost nothing to advance NIAID’s core obligation of researching the causes of the devastating explosions in epidemics of chronic allergic and autoimmune diseases that, under his tenure, have mushroomed to affect 54 percent of children, up from 12.8 percent when he took charge of NIAID in 1984. While ignoring the explosion of allergic conditions, Dr. Fauci has instead reshaped NIAID into the leading incubator for new pharmaceutical products, many of which, ironically, profit from the cascading chronic disease pandemic.”
Destroying American’s Health While Maximizing Big Pharma’s Profits
Kennedy describes Dr. Fauci’s main focus on page 122: “Over the last fifty years at NIH, Dr. Fauci has played a leading role in Big Pharma’s engineered demolition of American health and democracy, working hand in glove with pharmaceutical companies to overcome federal regulatory obstacles and transform the NIH and NIAID into a single-minded vehicle for development, promotion, and marketing of patented pharmaceutical products, including vaccines and vaccine-like products.”
Were Vaccines Responsible for the Drastic Decline in Infectious Disease Mortality?
The answer is no. On page 129, Kennedy provides the evidence: An exhaustive 2000 study by CDC and Johns Hopkins scientists published in Pediatrics, the official journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics, concluded, “Thus vaccination does not account for the impressive declines in infectious disease mortality seen in the first half of the [20th] century … nearly 90 percent of the decline in infectious disease mortality among U.S. children occurred before 1940, when few antibiotics or vaccines were available.”
What Did Cause the Drastic Decline in Infectious Disease Mortality?
Also, on page 129, the answer is clear: The CDC and a 1977 study by McKinlay and McKinlay found: “Both CDC and the McKinlays attributed the disappearance of infectious disease mortalities not to doctors and health officials, but to improved nutrition and sanitation—the latter credited to strict regulation of food preparation, electric refrigerators, sewage treatment, and chlorinated water. The McKinlays joined Harvard’s iconic infectious disease pioneer, Edward Kass, in warning that a self-serving medical cartel would one day try to claim credit for these public health improvements as a pretense for imposing unwarranted medical interventions (e.g., vaccines) on the American public.” (That prediction was totally accurate. Most of the public now believes that the vaccines were the saviors because that lie has been repeated ad nauseum.) “As the McKinlays and Kass had predicted, vaccinologists successfully hijacked the astonishing success story – the dramatic 74 percent decline in infectious disease mortalities of the first half of the twentieth century – and deployed it to claim for themselves and particularly for vaccines, a revered and sanctified – and scientifically undeserving -- prestige beyond criticism, questioning, or debate.” (The winners were better nutrition – fresh fruits and vegetables available year-round – and substantial improvements in sanitation. These factors were responsible for reducing infectious disease mortality to near zero. The claim that vaccines caused this decrease is false but is widely promoted by Big Pharma.)
1976: The Fake Swine Flu Epidemic
On pages 130 and 131: “That year federal regulators concocted a fake swine flu epidemic that temporarily raised hopes around CDC for the resurrection of its reputation as a life-saving superhero … But the swine flu pandemic was a dud, and HHS’s response was a global embarrassment. Only one casualty – a soldier at Fort Dix – succumbed to the “pandemic,” and Merck’s experimental vaccine triggered a national epidemic of Guillain-Barre’ syndrome, a devastating form of paralysis resembling polio, before regulators recalled the jab … Sixty Minutes aired a scathing segment in which Mike Wallace mercilessly exposed the corruption, incompetence, and cover-ups at HHS that led to the phony swine flu pandemic and the wave of casualties from NIH’s experimental vaccine. The scandal forced the resignation of CDC Director David Sencer for his role in concocting the phony pandemic and pushing the dangerous vaccine.”
AZT For AIDS
Azidothymidine, known as AZT, was originally developed as a chemotherapy drug to treat leukemia. The story of AZT and how it came to be an AIDS drug is told on pages 148-150: “FDA abandoned the toxic chemotherapy compound after it proved ineffective against cancer and breathtakingly lethal in mice. Government researchers deemed it too toxic even for short-term regimen cancer chemotherapy.” After HIV was identified as the probable cause of AIDS, Dr. Fauci began to promote AZT as a possible AIDS drug. “But it did not go smoothly … AZT’s horrendous toxicity hobbled researchers struggling to design study protocols that would make it appear either safe or effective.” Meanwhile, “Community doctors were achieving promising results with off-label therapeutic drugs that seemed effective against the constellation of symptoms that actually killed and tormented people with AIDS … Despite years of pleading by the HIV community, Dr. Fauci refused to test any of those repurposed drugs.” One of NCI’s top virologists, Dr. Frank Ruscetti had this to say: “We could have saved millions of lives with repurposed and therapeutic drugs. But there’s no profit in it. It’s all got to be about newly patented antivirals and their mischievous vaccines.”
Dallas Buyers Club to the rescue
The movie “Dallas Buyers Club” with Matthew McConaughey tells the story of this time in history. Melisa Wallack and Craig Borten received Oscar nominations for their script. Page 152-153 picks up the story: “Dr. Fauci’s campaign to sabotage therapeutic remedies played a key role in precipitating the emergence of the underground medical network. So-called “Buyers Clubs” filled the vacuum by providing treatments that community doctors and their patients considered effective against AIDS, but that FDA refused to approve. “Dr. Fauci was a liar.” Recalls Wallack, who researched Dr. Fauci intensively for her film. “He was utterly beholden to pharmaceutical companies and was hostile to any product that would compete with AZT. He was the real villain of this era. He cost a lot of people their lives.”
Discrediting Promising AIDS Drug with Fake Clinical Trial
One of the most promising AIDS drugs was AL 721. Here is the story on page 160: “AIDS activists afterward learned that at the same time Dr. Fauci was telling them and Senator Kennedy’s office that he was finally testing AL 721, Teflon Tony was confiding to his Pharma Pls [Principal Investigators] that he had rigged the AL 721 studies to fail. “I wanted to debunk it,” he assured them. Just as he would do with hydroxychloroquine during the COVID crisis thirty years later, he designed his AL 721 clinical trials in a way that would ensure their failure and thus discredit the unpatentable medicine.” (It is difficult not to feel a sense of deja-vu when we see that the same actions and tactics used during the early AIDS crisis are eerily repeated during the ongoing COVID crisis.)
Template for Getting Dangerous and Ineffective Drugs Approved
On page 172-173: “His success at using the AIDS crisis to bring a deadly, toxic, and ineffective AIDS drug to market taught Dr. Fauci some key career lessons that he would faithfully repeat again and again throughout his long regime. During his battle to win FDA approval for AZT, Dr. Fauci pioneered the strategy upon which he would build his career and then showcase for the world during the COVID epidemic.” Kennedy then lists 30 bullet points detailing how this strategy was carried out.
The HIV Heresies
In Chapter 5 beginning on page 178, Kennedy covers the ongoing controversy on the relationship of HIV and AIDS. There are many people with AIDS who don’t have HIV in their blood and there are many people with HIV who never develop AIDS. There seems to be much more to AIDS than just HIV. More on the HIV/AIDS hypothesis will be covered in Part 3.
I have covered a tiny fraction of the material in the second hundred pages of this fantastic 445-page book. For those interested in this subject, the book is engrossing and highly recommended for page by page cover to cover reading. I hope to cover the rest of the book in two more articles.

PART 1
The Real Anthony Fauci, from Skyhorse Publishing
By Dr. William H. Gaunt, NMD
Format of this article
This article will cover highlights from the first 100 pages of this 445-page book. Future articles will cover the rest. The plan is to list page numbers so those who have the book can read more about each nugget and look up the references if they want more information. My comments will appear in parenthesis.
An Author’s Take on Kennedy’s Book
Best-selling author James Howard Kunstler (The Long Emergency and several other books) describes The Real Anthony Fauci as “A massive book about Fauci’s unholy career at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a virtual prosecution manual, meticulously annotated, that will be used in countless lawsuits against Dr. Fauci, his colleagues who outlive him, and the many agencies and NGOs and perhaps in actual criminal trials of these well-known perps.” (Is this derogatory quote justified? Read on.)
What is Regulatory Capture?
This quote is from page XV of the introduction. Kennedy explains: “Regulatory capture is the process by which the regulator becomes beholden to the industry it’s meant to regulate ... From the moment of my reluctant entrance into the vaccine debate in 2005, I was astonished to realize that the pervasive web of deep financial entanglements between Pharma and the government health agencies had put regulatory capture on steroids.” (The CDC, FDA, and other regulators no longer protect the people from rapacious pharma corporations. They now protect these corporations from the people.)
Early Treatment Options Ignored
On page 8, Dr Peter McCullough, MD observes that “We could have dramatically reduced COVID fatalities and hospitalizations using early treatment protocols and repurposed drugs including ivermectin (IVM) and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and many, many others…Hundreds of peer-reviewed studies now show that early treatment could have averted some 80 percent of deaths attributed to COVID…but for Dr. Fauci’s hard-headed tunnel vision on new vaccines and Remdesivir. (We will see that the use of cheap and highly effective drugs was not only ignored but was aggressively suppressed.)
Killing Hydroxychloroquine
On page 19, Kennedy explains that “Dr. Fauci led an effort to deliberately derail America’s access to lifesaving drugs and medicines that might have saved hundreds of thousands of lives and dramatically shortened the pandemic…From the outset, HCQ and other therapeutics posed an existential threat to Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates’ $48 billion COVID vaccine project, and particularly to their vanity drug Remdesivir, in which Gates has a large stake. On page 21 there is more information on HCQ: “Some 200 peer-reviewed studies (C19Study.com) by government and independent researchers deem HCQ safe and effective against Coronavirus, especially when taken prophylactically or when in the initial stages of illness along with zinc and Zithromax.” (HCQ and other effective and cheap drugs had to be suppressed in order to sell more vaccines and Remdesivir.)
More on page 26: “Dr. Fauci, Bill Gates, and WHO financed a cadre of research mercenaries to concoct a series of nearly 20 studies all employing fraudulent protocols deliberately designed to discredit HCQ as unsafe. Instead of using the standard treatment dose of 400 mg/day, the 17 WHO studies administered a borderline lethal daily dose starting with 2,400 mg on Day 1 and using 800 mg/day thereafter.”
Dr. Meryl Nass had this to say about these studies, “The purpose seemed, very clearly, to poison the patients and blame the deaths on HCQ.” (The correct protocol is to give HCQ, zinc, and Zithromax at a dosage that is safe and effective early in the disease before the patients are critically ill. These studies used borderline lethal doses of HCQ in critically ill patients and did not use zinc and Zithromax. The intent of these studies was to deliberately make HCQ appear ineffective and dangerous.)
Fraudulent studies published by The Lancet and The New England Journal of Medicine
On page 29, Kennedy describes these studies: “Both studies in these respected publications relied on data from the Surgisphere Corporation, an obscure Illinois based medical education company that claimed to somehow control an extraordinary global database boasting access to medical information from 96,000 patients in more than 600 hospitals … The Lancet article portrayed HCQ as ineffective and dangerous … Three European nations immediately banned use of HCQ, and others followed within weeks.” (The Surgisphere data was fraudulently conjured up from thin air.)
More on page 30: “Both The Lancet and NEJM finally withdrew their studies in shame … To date neither the authors nor the journals have explained who induced them to coauthor and publish the most momentous fraud in the history of scientific publishing …The capacity of their Pharma overlords to strong-arm the world’s top two medical journals into condoning deadly research and to simultaneously publish blatantly fraudulent articles in the middle of a pandemic, attests to the cartel’s breathtaking power and ruthlessness … The headline of a comprehensive expose’ in the British newspaper “The Guardian” expressed the global shock among the scientific community of the rank corruption by scientific publishing’s most formidable pillars: “The Lancet has made one of the biggest retractions in modern history. How could this happen?” The Guardian writers openly accused The Lancet of promoting fraud. “The sheer number and magnitude of the things that went wrong or missing are too enormous to attribute to mere incompetence … What’s incredible is that the editors of these esteemed journals still have a job.”
Meanwhile in Other Countries
On page 32 and 33, Kennedy describes what was happening in other countries regarding HCQ: “In compliance with the WHO recommendation, Switzerland banned the use of HCQ; however, about two weeks into the ban, Switzerland’s death rates tripled, for about 15 days, until Switzerland reintroduced HCQ. COVID deaths then fell back to their baseline. Switzerland’s “natural experiment” had provided yet another potent argument for HCQ … A meta-review of 58 observational studies by physician researchers in Spain, Italy, France, and Saudi Arabia found that HCQ dramatically reduced mortality from COVID, while additional articles by doctors in Turkey, Canada, and the US found that HCQ’s cardiac toxicity is negligible.
Andrew Schlafly (engineer and lawyer) observed that, “The mortality rate from COVID-19 in countries that allow access to HCQ is only one-tenth the mortality rate in countries where there is interference with this medication, such as the United States … In some areas of Central America, officials are even going door to door to distribute HCQ … these countries have been successful in limiting the mortality from COVID-19 to only a fraction of what it is in wealthier countries.”
Ivermectin (IVM): Nobel Prize for Effective Treatment of Human Parasites
On page 37, Kennedy covers the remarkable success of IVM: “By the summer of 2020, front-line physicians had discovered another COVID remedy that equaled HCQ in its staggering, life-saving efficacy. Five years earlier, two Merck scientists won the Nobel Prize for developing IVM, a drug with unprecedented firepower against a wide range of human parasites, including roundworm, hookworm, river blindness, and lymphatic filariasis. That salute was the Nobel Committee’s only award to an infectious disease medication in 60 years. FDA approved IVM as safe and effective for human use in 1996. WHO includes IVM (along with HCQ) on its inventory of “essential medicines” … Millions of people have consumed billions of IVM doses as an anti-parasitic, with minimal side effects”
On page 38, the effectiveness of IVM in preventing COVID-19 is covered: “In Argentina, for example, in the summer of 2020, Dr. Hector Carvallo conducted a randomized placebo-controlled trial of IVM as a preventive, finding 100 percent efficacy against COVID-19. Carvallo’s team found no infections in 788 workers who took weekly IVM prophylaxis, whereas 58 percent of the 407 controls had become ill with COVID-19.”
As the U.S. Restricts IVM, Other Countries Are Increasing Its Use
On pages 42 and 43, the contrast in the use of IVM in other countries compared to the U.S. is presented: “Today, as Dr. Fauci moves the U.S. to eliminate all use of IVM, other countries are using more of it. In February 2021, the head of the Tokyo Metropolitan Medical Association held a press conference to call for adding IVM to its outpatient treatment protocol. Several Indian states had added IVM to their list of essential medications to treat COVID-19. Indonesia’s government not only authorized the use of the drug but also created a website showing real-time availability … El Salvador distributes IVM for free to all of its citizens. Nations where residents have easy access to IVM invariably see immediate and dramatic declines in COVID deaths. Hospitals in Indonesia started using IVM on July 22, 2021. By the first week of August, cases and deaths were plummeting … New Delhi, India was experiencing a COVID epidemic crisis. The state government obliterated 97 percent of Delhi cases by distributing IVM.
British Physician Dr. Tess Lawrie’s Passionate Support For IVM
On pages 52 and 53, Dr. Lawrie began by endorsing the miraculous efficacy of IVM: “Had IVM been employed in 2020 when medical colleagues around the world first alerted the authorities to its efficacy, millions of lives could have been saved, and the pandemic with all its associated suffering and loss brought to a rapid and timely end … The story of IVM has highlighted that we are at a remarkable juncture in medical history. The tools that we use to heal our patients are being systematically undermined by relentless disinformation stemming from corporate greed. The story of IVM shows that we as a public have misplaced our trust in the authorities and have underestimated the extent to which money and power corrupts … Dr. Lawrie called out the corruption of modern medicine by Big Pharma and other interests and attributed the barbaric suppression of IVM to the single-minded obsession with more profitable vaccines.”
IVM Works Great/Can’t Have That/Got to Do Something
Dr. Pierre Kory is the former Chief of the Critical Care Service and Medical Director of the Trauma and Life Support Center at the University of Wisconsin. On page 54, his testimony before the Senate and what happened next will shock you. “When Dr. Kory’s explosive December 8, 2020 Senate testimony describing the peer-reviewed science supporting IVM went viral, prescriptions for IVM from U.S. doctors exploded. Americans were getting legitimate prescriptions filled at pharmacies, up to 88,000 scripts in a single week. The truth of the drug’s benefits was going viral, and the last thing Dr. Fauci et al could tolerate was an effective treatment for COVID. Something needed to be done. The government moved aggressively to block its use … You Tube soon scrubbed Kory’s video and Facebook blocked him. Then in March 2021 the U.S. FDA, the European Medical Association (EMA), and the WHO issued statements advising against the use of IVM for COVID-19 … On July 18, 2021 a front-page Wall Street Journal headline asked, “Why is the FDA Attacking a Safe, Effective Drug?” On August 16, 2021, two weeks after the Wall Street Journal article, CDC ordered doctors to stop prescribing IVM. (Is it clear yet?)
Remdesivir: Ineffective and Deadly
On pages 63-70: “Anthony Fauci needed to use all his moxie and all his esoteric maneuvers mastered during his half-century at NIH, to win FDA’s approval for his vanity drug, Remdesivir. Remdesivir has no clinical efficacy against COVID-19 according to every legitimate study. Worse, it is deadly poisonous and expensive, an expensive poison at $3,000 per treatment … Many doctors believe our country’s record COVID-19 fatalities are at least in part due to widespread use of remdesivir in 2020. We had the most deaths worldwide says Dr. Ryan Cole. It is a haunting question: How many of these Americans were remdesivir casualties? Dr. Peter McCullough gives us a stark and clear summary: Remdesivir has two problems. First, it doesn’t work. Second, it is toxic and its kills people.”
VAERS is Intentionally Flawed
VAERS stands for Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System. On page 72 and 73: “Dr. Fauci stubbornly refused to fix VAERS which systematically suppresses reporting of most vaccine injuries … A 2010 HHS study concluded that VAERS detects fewer that 1 percent of vaccine injuries. Put another way, VAERS misses OVER 99 percent of vaccine injuries, thereby lending the illusion of safety to even the deadliest inoculations. In 2010, the federal Agency for Health Care Research Quality (AHRQ) designed and field-tested a state-of-the-art machine-counting system as an efficient alternative to VAERS. By testing the system for several years on the Harvard Pilgrim HMO, AHRQ proved that it could capture most vaccine injuries. AHRQ initially planned to roll out the system to all remaining HMOs, but after seeing the AHRQ’s frightening results- vaccines were causing serious injuries in 1 of every 40 recipients- CDC killed the project and stowed the new system on a dusty shelf.” (Which entities benefit from drastic undercounting of vaccine injuries and deaths?)
COVID Vaccines Cause Record Injuries and Deaths
On page 87 and 88: “Despite CDC’s efforts to hide the carnage in the U.S., even the dysfunctional VAERS system has recorded unprecedented waves of documented deaths following COVID vaccines … Health workers have administered many billions of vaccines during the past thirty-two years, yet in just eight months, the COVID vaccines have injured and killed far more Americans than all other vaccines combined over three decades.” (Read this paragraph again and try to take in this shocking truth.)
This article presents only a tiny fraction of the enormously important information in the first 100 pages of Kennedy’s book. Stay tuned for the nuggets in the next 100 pages soon.

Dr William Gaunt Yup! people power..running like the yellow back he and his brood are..
Justin Trudeau and his family flee Canadian capital Ottawa as up to 50,000 'Freedom Convoy' anti-vaccine mandate truckers arrive at his office - days after he dismissed them as a 'small fringe minority'
Justin Trudeau and his family have left their Ottawa home amid security concerns as demonstrators marched up and down the streets in front the Prime Minister's office to rally against the vaccine mandate
Days earlier, he had called the truckers headed for the city a 'small fringe minority' before the convoy of hundreds of vehicles grew up to 45 miles long as it made its way to the capital .
Protestors could be seen carrying copies of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, while others carried signs reading 'God keep our land glorious and free,' 'Make Canada great again,' and 'we are here for our freedom'
The convoy set out from British Columbia on Sunday and was cheered by hundreds of Canadians as it made its 2,000-mile journey to protest vaccine mandates

Interesting things going on in Canada, go truckers, maybe some may begin to take note of the other 70 vaccines.
Perhaps there could be a TV show called “Undercover Vaccine Boss,” where the boss would visit vaccine damaged children and parents.
Then at the end of the show, he would invite the victims to the vaccine headquarters and the boss would tell them off and send them away with nothing.

Benedetta, regarding polio, I think Neil Young needs to read Dan Olmsted's work and The Moth in the Iron Lung: a Biography of Polio by Forrest Maready. I think he would have less objection to 'misinformation' from Joe Rogan's podcasts. Apparently, he had polio as a child, has epilepsy and he has two daughters with disabilities. I read that he funds a school for children with disabilities, which is laudable but he needs to expand his breadth of sources of information.
Dr William Gaunt, yes, bravo.

Thank you, Dr. Gaunt, again. So appreciate these highlights!
@Benedetta, I get the state of dis-ease at not knowing what if anything we've "learned" or understood is/was true in this world where ruling via lies, false narratives, seems to have been honed to an art form.

Meanwhile, Bravo Canadian truckers!

Yeah, I fell for the low fat diet just when I was having my children.
Do you all know how much better veggies are that have butter on them?
I mean really; they will actually get eaten.
My Grandpa told me that WWI was all about keeping the population in check, that Europe was getting too many people and that is why all of the Royals did it.
What we have not even considered is staggering.
That date on polio outbreaks and Congress voting on bills to get rid of the CDC; bothers me a lot!
Posted by: Benedetta | January 29, 2022 at 11:07 AM
I found it interesting that they were thinking about doing away with a federal agency - CDC back as far as 1949, cause of the lack of infectious disease problems at that time.
Page 130 of the book.
"As early as 1949, Congressional bills to abolish CDC because of the remarkable decline in infectious disease mortalities twice won by impressive majorities."
The big polio outbreaks happened between 1948 and 1955.
Is that right?
We had some hit and misses of small outbreaks as written about by Dan - in and around New York sugar industry.
Did they already know?
Hmmm, how may sickened and died from the lack of that vitamin B niacin; from mill the cornmeal different, before that?
The powers that be - at that time made it so hard on that doctor to prove it; No one, could be that stupid and slow, unless on purpose. it kills 10s of 1000s by the way. It was no small thing.
Hmmmm, being of suspicious mind which I have in spades now a days!
And what was with that stupid food pyramid of grains, grains, grains? Come to think of it what is this all about no fats - back in the 80s I feel for - and the statin drugs.

Ryan White a young teenager that had hemophilia through blood products from 1000s of donors.
Dan Olmsted at this time would have revisited that tale to see if there was another angle to that story.
Ryan did beat this lung cancer, right?
Then later died, of what?
cancer or did he too take ATZ?
Another story that caught the head lines that had us all scrambling for cover was the dentist that decided to give AIDS to all of his patients to call attention to the AIDS epidemic was not just for GAYS.
The HHS then had all the dentists doing these little useless measures - like "the face masks" Stuff of today. I can't remember what all it was, but they were just plain silly. I thought so back then too.
Kim with her father as a dentist might know more about that, her memory might be more sharp on that.
But that story needs to be revisited as well; cause I smell a rat.
