Dr. Fauci complains about Sturgis motorcycle rally — but somehow misses Obama's birthday bash, Lollapalooza
Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden, complained Sunday about the annual Sturgis motorcycle rally taking place in South Dakota, warning the gathering may become a super-spreader event for COVID-19.
Noticeably absent from Fauci's concerns were recent events that also have the potential to become COVID super-spreader gatherings.
What did Fauci say?
During an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press," host Chuck Todd asked Fauci whether he is concerned that Sturgis will drive a surge in COVID-19 cases.
Last year, a relatively smaller Sturgis rally — which typically draws more than 500,000 people to South Dakota — was blamed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for causing a COVID outbreak.
Responding to Todd's question, Fauci said he is concerned about another outbreak and suggested rally attendees are being irresponsible.
"I'm very concerned, Chuck, that we're going to see another surge related to that rally," Fauci said.
"I mean, to me, it's understandable that people want to do the kinds of things they want to do. They want their freedom to do that," he continued. "But there comes a time when you're dealing with a public health crisis that could involve you, your family, and everyone else, that something supersedes that need to do exactly what you want to do."
Fauci added that people who want the freedom to continue living their lives without COVID restrictions, like Sturgis attendees, must "realize" that "something bad is going on."
What did Fauci not discuss?
As was noted after Fauci's interview, the infectious diseases doctor failed to target other notable recent mass gatherings for criticism: Obama's 60th birthday bash and Lollapalooza.
Obama's birthday party — which drew celebrities from across the country to Obama's Martha's Vineyard estate — took place with maskless guests, who were not required to be vaccinated. The party went on despite the CDC classifying Martha's Vineyard as a region with "high" COVID-19 transmission, meaning vaccinated people there should wear face masks indoors and avoid large gatherings.
Meanwhile, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot permitted Lollapalooza, a music festival that draws more than 400,000 each year, to take place in late July. The festival went on despite warnings from public health experts.
Dr. Emily Landon, executive medical director for infection prevention and control at the University of Chicago Medical Center, for example, warned that Lollapalooza could cause "wildfires of infection."
Perhaps Sturgis is the target of ire because its attendees aren't of the "sophisticated" type, like those who attended Obama's birthday.

Obama's birthday party would be a good place for a drone equipped with a "Hell Fire" missal or two.

Obama's birthday party...those in attendance 100% vaccinated and 100% covid tested shortly before the party.
Sturgis...I'd be surprised if 25% of the people are vaccinated, or 5% tested

Obama held his birthday party outdoors, which is much safer. He cut down the guest list considerably. It was planned as a big bash, and that did not happen.
Lollapalooza should have been canceled.
Sturgis will be another super spreader event.
Fauci spent his whole life fighting the spread of contagious diseases. He is worth listening to.

Should Fauci complain about Obama would lead to repercussions, likely get fired by Biden.

Fau Chi should hop his skinny ass on his Chinese moped and he’d on out to Sturgis, maybe get acquainted with some real men and women. Any bets on how long he might last spewing his lies in that venue??

Obama responded to criticism by severely cutting back on the guests at his party. Of course precautions were in place.

Of course lol!

Obama was going to have just family and a few friends but the video I saw was anything but. And what does it matter if everyone was vaccinated if you can still get the variant. Do as I say, not as I do?

They appeared to be cautious and precautious.
Anyone can see that, some are just blind as to what the scumbag Obama can and will do.
