"What are you accusing of Fauci of doing exactly?"
Fauci and other top government officials like Walensky and Biden said the vaccines would slow the spread of the disease. When we had eight hundred thousand cases a day last winter it became obvious this wasn't true. They also said masks would slow the spread of the disease. Once again, eight hundred thousand cases a day showed this wasn't true. Florida under DeSantis didn't go down the path of mandatory vaccinations, mask wearing and lockdowns like most of the rest of the country. Adjusted for age distribution, their deaths were at the national average.
The vaccines do appear to reduce deaths among the elderly. Encouraging old people to get vaccinated while letting young people lead normal lives would have been as effective. Protecting elderly people in nursing homes, not putting already infected people in them like Cuomo did, would have helped too. The lockdowns caused psychological problems among young people with increases in suicide attempts and drug and alcohol abuse among them. The money printing to try to offset the negative economic effects of the lockdowns has led to high inflation and increasing economic distress. Fauci supported all these policies. Fauci has a long history of advocating bad health policies going back to AIDS, as a recent best-selling book by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. documented.
