More than six years after Dr. Anthony Fauci began leading the national discussion regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, news details continue to emerge regarding his advice.
In particular, evidence shows that Fauci knew of potentially life-threatening issues associated with the rapidly developed COVID vaccine even as he was urging Americans to get the jab.
Now, one longtime Fox News anchor has opened up about his own experience, citing his decision to receive the vaccine and booster as a likely culprit.
It is not John Roberts’ first public statement in opposition to the COVID vaccine, as reported by Forbes after Colin Powell’s death in 2021. Roberts authored a series of follow-up tweets asserting that he was unfairly characterized as “anti-vax,” noting he was “excited” to get vaccinated, participated in a PSA encouraging vaccination against Covid-19 and plans to get a booster shot “as soon as possible.”
Roberts acknowledged that Powell had myeloma but added he “personally knew a number of people who have had breakthrough infections—some of them quite troubling.”
A recent report has revealed bombshell allegations from Fauci’s text messages: In a January 2021 exchange between Fauci and then Surgeon General Vivek Murthy and CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, Fauci flagged a possible issue, stating, “I asked around a bit and more and since many people have significant cytokine storms and fever after the second dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the first trimester.”
A week later, Fauci reported to the FDA that it found no red flags among pregnant women in COVID-19 vaccine trials and that the vaccine’s benefits outweighed any potential risks.
NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya discussed the release of the messages on a recent broadcast, stating: “It’s kind of shocking, actually, because he was the public face of the COVID response, and he recommended that basically everyone get the vaccine, and he was the face of the vaccine mandates in January 2021 when he sent that text message,” Bhattacharya, a Trump appointee, added.
