Dr. Fauci's bizarre fame fixation as COVID deaths mounted revealed in newly released diaries

Dr. Anthony Fauci became increasingly fixated on his newfound fame as pandemic deaths soared, reveal the former White House COVID adviser's newly released diary entries. As early as April 2020, when more than 60,000 people had already died of COVID in the United States, the man in charge of America's response to the pandemic was obsessing about his recent stardom, according to journals released by Kentucky Republican Sen. and long-term Fauci critic Rand Paul. One of the most startling examples came in a May 21, 2020 entry, in which Fauci wrote: "The situation with my national and international fame is explosive and really unimaginable. It is not hyperbole to say that today I am the most famous and talked about person in the country and one of the most recognizable person in the world." A Trump senior adviser, Peter Navarro, has branded Fauci the "Dr. Frankenstein of the modern era," accusing him of having "the blood of millions of people on his hands."
