Thank you Dr. Fauci. We need more researchers like you. This pandemic was unprecedented in our lifetimes. There was a lot to learn as Covid progressed. There is still a lot to learn. Thank you for continuing your research and maintaining your composure and compassion. The naysayers will always be with us. I've read books about the Black Death and Spanish Flu and even then there were people who remained in a complete state of denial while others took precautions. That is the nature of a human being and indeed history akways repeats itself. I enjoyed the book immensely.

Is it even possible to give this a MILLION STARS!?! What an amazing man and public servant who has unselfishly dedicated his life work towards helping others... AND continues to do so despite the hatred! Thank you Dr. Fauci for sharing your gifts so that all those individuals who continue to spew negativity at you continue to get up every day with a voice. You are an incredibly human being. ♥ This is a much deserved tribute during an unprecedented time in our nation and world's history that I look forward to reading.

Probably should have read the description more clearly. It is interesting to know what drives him; what his principles are, but I would like to know more about him and his work.
