Dr. Fauci, Resign and Speak Your Mind!
Donald Trump has made it clear that he and his administration not only intend to do nothing about the COVID-19 pandemic, but will continue to actively undermine sensible health initiatives like the wearing of masks. If Trump is re-elected, tens of thousands of Americans will die -- unnecessarily. Dr. Fauci, your best efforts will not contain or divert Trump. So the time has come to save lives through another path: Speak your mind about the deadly folly perpetuated by this administration, and also assess, for the good of the nation, Biden's plans to contain the virus and save lives.
Why is this important?
If Trump is re-elected, many more people will die. If Biden is elected there will be a Federal response to the pandemic that will be based in science and thereby effectively save people that Trump's malignant neglect will condemn to death. Your current position on the Task Force leaves you beholden to the President and forces you to blunt your warnings to the American people. But as in other epidemics, silence = death! As directed by the Hippocratic oath, by basic ethics, and by your evident compassion for the plight of all peoples, you cannot continue in this compromised position. You can't control Trump, but plain speaking directly to the American people will save thousands of lives. We call on you to resign and speak your mind plainly and without equivocation.
