Fauci's Hidden COVID Death Rate Calculations | Wilmington News
Description
New revelations from Dr. Fauci’s 2020 diary entries show he privately believed the COVID-19 death rate was just 0.2%—far lower than the 2% he later told Congress. He and former CDC director Tom Frieden both thought the true fatality rate was closer to 0.2–0.3%, based on early data showing 34,867 cases and 700 deaths. These personal notes also reveal Fauci’s skyrocketing fame, including a flattering Washington Post profile and global recognition, as he documented his growing influence and even saved screenshots of positive headlines about himself—while navigating his complex relationship with President Trump.
