Dr. Anthony Fauci has led the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for more than three decades, but a former ethics officer who successfully blew the whistle on the federal agency says it's time for an infusion of "new blood."
"It's important that government bring in fresh perspectives, fresh ideas, younger people, you know, and people don't get so entrenched, the bureaucracy doesn't get entrenched for decades " said Dr. Jonathan Fishbein, who was fired back in 2004-05 as Director of the Office for Policy in Clinical Research Operations in NIAD's AIDS Division and then returned to his job after his whistleblowing complaint identifying ethical and patient safety concerns was validated.
Fishbein, who an official review determined was the victim of retaliation, discussed his experiences working under Fauci on the latest episode of the Just the News podcast John Solomon Reports.
Fauci, who has been catapulted to national prominence amid the coronavirus pandemic, started serving as the NIAID Director in 1984.
Fishbein said about Fauci that "it seems like he doesn't stick to facts. I think he is in front of the microphone a whole lot, he is doing so many interviews and he doesn't stick to the facts." Referencing comments Fauci made suggesting that people should permanently end the practice of shaking hands, Fishbein said that Fauci "mixes opinion in there, and I don't think that that's particularly appropriate."
