\u201c[Fauci] is giving edicts that really reflect his own sort of authoritarian impulses\u201d<\/i><\/b>\"rand_paul_omicron.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Senator Rand Paul warned Wednesday that despite knowing little to nothing about the Omicron variant of COVID, which has been described as mild by South African doctors and experts, the prescription from the likes of Anthony Fauci and Joe Biden is \u2018more government and less freedom.\u2019<\/i><\/p>\n

Appearing on Fox News, Paul urged that Fauci is a \u201cpartisan\u201d who \u201calways defaults to more rules, more regulation, and less of your liberty.\u201d<\/p>\n

Paul further noted that \u201cinstead of waiting to find out whether this is a dangerous variant, [Fauci] immediately wants to test everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Senator continued, \u201cIf you heard tomorrow that a new coronavirus came out of South Africa, but the symptoms were the same as a cold and that no one was dying from it, why would you want to test everybody? You would waste millions of dollars, interrupt millions of people\u2019s travel, quarantine all these people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow, if it\u2019s the black plague, maybe we do have to do more testing. So, I\u2019m not saying absolutely we don\u2019t. I\u2019m just saying we\u2019ve no idea,\u201d Paul continued, emphasizing \u201cWhy would you make a blanket decision for the whole world on locking the economy down, locking the country up, banning travel before you know whether this is a deadly variant or a less deadly variant?\u201d<\/p>\n

Paul further explained, \u201cIt would be foolish to have any public health policy come out tomorrow \u2014 anything that Biden says will be unsupported by any science \u2013 and it will be his gut protective, \u2018government must do something,’\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn all likelihood, government will do the wrong thing. We should wait, we should pause, and study this,\u201d the Senator maintained, adding \u201cThe first thing we need to know is [whether] this a worse variant or a less-lethal variant \u2026 If it\u2019s less lethal, this might be a lucky break for us. If it\u2019s more lethal, the government should do is get out of the way of a new vaccine and also new monoclonal antibodies.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInstead, Fauci will want you to wear an extra mask, and dictate you can\u2019t go to church,\u201d Paul urged.<\/p>\n

In a further interview with Breitbart News, Paul argued that it is the misinformation put out by the likes of Fauci that is leading to the \u201cvaccine hesitancy\u201d among Americans that complains about and uses a justification for stricter regulations.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think hesitancy is coming from the misinformation of the big-government types,\u201d Paul said, also noting that \u201cI think it\u2019s actually malpractice not to consider natural immunity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo for example, if you\u2019re a pediatrician and you\u2019re telling every kid to be vaccinated without any consideration for whether or not they\u2019ve already had COVID, I think you\u2019re really practicing bad medicine,\u201d Paul urged, adding \u201cI would suggest that everybody who thinks about getting a vaccine for their child ask first for an antibody test.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Senator added \u201c[Fauci] has completely ignored over a 100 million people in our country who have already had COVID.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of the time, [Fauci] is giving edicts that really reflect his own sort of authoritarian impulses, and this is true of a lot of people in public health,\u201d Paul concluded, adding \u201cThe people who gravitate to public health are people [and] doctors who are content to work for government. They\u2019ve never really been in business, and their first impulse is to try to stop a disease by controlling the people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
