多篇2020年的日记条目与福奇多次公开否认自己曾建议实施新冠封锁或学校停课的说法相矛盾
作者：彼得·达布罗斯卡 福克斯新闻
安东尼·福奇博士的私人日记内容显示，他在新冠大流行期间沉迷于个人名气。批评人士指出，其日记中很少提及公共卫生相关内容，反而充斥着个人赞誉，这引发了人们对其优先事项以及大流行起源的质疑。

尽管福奇在新冠大流行期间及之后多次公开否认自己曾亲自建议实施封锁措施，但从其私人日记中披露的片段证明了两者之间存在明显矛盾。
在2020年3月15日的一篇以红色字体写下“大日子！”开头的日记中，时任美国国家过敏和传染病研究所（NIAID）所长安东尼·福奇回忆了他与时任纽约市市长比尔·德布拉西奥的一次引人关注的对话。
“我与比尔·德布拉西奥（纽约市市长）进行了交谈，并根据我公开的表态和今晚的谈话说服他关闭纽约市学校——他已经根据我在电视上的发言做出了决定，”福奇在私人笔记中写道。

福奇新公开的新冠日记揭示：随着大流行死亡人数攀升，他沉迷于个人名气
“我随后与加利福尼亚州州长加文·纽瑟姆的幕僚长安·奥利里进行了类似通话，”该日记条目继续写道。“安表示，基于我今天和昨天的电视露面，州长已经决定关闭加州的学校以及酒吧和餐厅。”
但七个月后，在2022年10月16日接受美国广播公司新闻主持人乔纳森·卡尔采访时，福奇否认自己曾参与推动封锁措施。
“我们回头看看 transcripts 吧。我们当时说应该尽一切可能让孩子们留在学校，”福奇说道。“没人会放那段剪辑。”
“他们总是回头说‘福奇应对学校停课负责’。我对此毫无关系！”他当时坚称。

2022年，他告诉《国会山报》，他“从未建议封锁任何场所”，这显然与他自己私下记录的内容相悖。
2024年1月9日，在封锁措施结束数年后，福奇在众议院监督委员会作证时也给出了同样的说法。
“我没有关闭学校，”根据听证会记录，他说道。“随后我就成了政治攻击目标，这种情况变得很普遍。”

除了关闭学校之外，福奇还曾向政府领导人建议实施封锁措施，而他后来也对此予以否认。
福奇私人日记内幕：他写下的关于特朗普、电视名人与名人的内容
在2020年3月15日的日记中，这位曾是美国顶尖传染病专家的福奇表示，他指示德布拉西奥关闭该市的酒吧。
“我接着告诉他，他应该关闭纽约市的酒吧和餐厅。他表示会根据我的建议采取行动，”福奇写道。
五天后，他称自己告知市长关闭整个纽约市。
“还与德布拉西奥市长通了电话，他希望在全市范围内实施‘就地避难’。由于科莫州长反对，他向我征求意见。我建议德布拉西奥[原文如此]尽管去做。我会试着和科莫谈谈，”日记中写道。

2020年3月29日，福奇回忆了与唐纳德·特朗普总统的一次紧张会面，他将特朗普描述为“不可救药”。
这次会面的目的是在最初的“15天减缓传播”期结束后说服总统延长封锁措施，该措施始于2020年3月16日——距美国记录首例新冠病例约一个月。
“归根结底，结果不错，因为我们说服他将封锁延长30天[原文如此]，而不是过早终止防控措施，我认为那将是一场灾难，”福奇说道。
在2020年11月28日的日记条目里，他回忆自己曾支持一位洛杉矶县卫生官员想要封锁该县的提议。
“昨晚接到马克·加利的电话（洛杉矶县卫生服务部社区健康副主任）。他已经多次打电话向我征求建议，”日记中写道。“他打来电话时十分慌乱，称洛杉矶县的病例数正激增，病床很快就会爆满。他希望实施为期三周的城市封锁以‘遏制疫情激增’，并希望得到我的支持，因为目前反对封锁的呼声很高。我同意支持他。”

但在2022年，当他参加《国会山报》的“崛起”播客时，福奇再次否认自己应对封锁措施负责。
“嗯，你知道，再说一次，首先，我从未建议封锁任何场所，”他声称。“你在问我问题。你是在说疾控中心是公共卫生机构，会利用其流行病学家和基于科学的方法来提出建议……”

尽管他自己一再否认，福奇本人在2020年疫情混乱期间也曾告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，他是封锁措施的幕后推手。
“当我们明确看到国内出现社区传播，只有几例社区传播病例时——那远远早于我们看到以纽约都会区为驱动的东北部走廊出现大规模疫情爆发时——我就向总统建议我们应该关闭全国，”他在2020年10月7日说道。

Fauci privately took credit for COVID-19 lockdowns despite public denial, newly exposed diary entries reveal

Multiple 2020 entries contradict Fauci’s repeated public denials that he recommended COVID lockdowns or school closures
By Peter D’Abrosca Fox News
Dr. Anthony Fauci’s private diary entries reveal his fixation on personal fame during the COVID-19 pandemic. Critics point to his diary’s lack of focus on public health terms versus personal accolades, raising questions about his priorities and the pandemic’s origins.

Despite denying on multiple occasions during and after the COVID-19 pandemic that he personally recommended lockdowns, excerpts revealed from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s private diary prove a clear contradiction.
In a March 15, 2020, entry in the diary, which begins with “BIG DAY!” written in red letters, Fauci, then the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) recalled a striking conversation he had with then-New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio.
“I spoke with Bill de Blasio (Mayor – NYC) and convinced him based on what I was saying publicly and my conversation tonight to close the NYC schools (he had already decided based on what I was saying on TV),” Fauci revealed in his private notes.

FAUCI’S NEWLY RELEASED COVID DIARIES REVEAL BIZARRE FIXATION ON FAME AS PANDEMIC DEATHS MOUNTED
“I had a similar call with Ann O’Leary, the Chief of Staff of Gov. Gavin Newsom of California,” this particular entry went on. “Ann said that based on my TV appearances today and yesterday, the Governor has decided to close the schools in California as well as the bars and restaurants.”
But seven months later, on an Oct. 16, 2022 interview with ABC News’ Jonathan Karl, Fauci denied any involvement in inspiring lockdowns.
“Let’s go back and look at the transcript. We said we should try as best as we possibly can to keep the children in school,” Fauci said. “Nobody plays that clip.”
“They always come back and say, ‘Fauci was responsible for shutting schools down.’ I had nothing to do [with it]!” he insisted at the time.
EXPOSED FAUCI DIARY SHOWS HE ESTIMATED COVID-19 DEATH RATE TO BE MUCH LOWER THAN WHAT HE TOLD CONGRESS
In 2022 he told The Hill that he “didn’t recommend locking anything down,” clearly going against his own privately recorded entries.
In January 9, 2024, years after the end of lockdowns ended, Fauci testified the same thing before the House Oversight Committee.
“I did not close the schools,” he said, according to the hearing transcript. And it became the widespread situation where I became a political target.”

Fauci recommended to government leaders lockdown measures besides just closing schools, which he would also later deny.
INSIDE FAUCI’S PRIVATE DIARY: WHAT HE WROTE ABOUT TRUMP, TV PERSONALITIES AND CELEBRITIES
In the March 15, 2020, diary entry, Fauci, once the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, said he directed de Blasio to close the city’s bars.
“I went on to tell him he should close the bars and restaurants in NYC. He said that he would base this on my recommendation,” Fauci wrote.
Five days later, he said he told the mayor to close all of New York City.
“Also, had phone call with Major de Blasio who wants to go to ‘shelter in place for the entire city.[‘] He is asking my advice since Gov. Cuomo is pushing back. I advised DeBlasio [sic] to go ahead and do it. I will try to speak with Cuomo,” the entry said.

On March 29, 2020, Fauci recounted a tense meeting with President Donald Trump, who he described as “incorrigible.”
The goal of the meeting was to get the president to extend lockdowns after the initial “15 days to stop the spread” period, which began on March 16 of 2020 — about a month after the first case of COVID-19 was recorded in the U.S.
“At the end of the day it was a good outcome since we convinced him to go with 30 day (sic) instead of ending the mitigation prematurely, which I feel would be a disaster,” Fauci said.
In a November 28, 2020, diary entry, he recalled lending support to a Los Angeles County health official who wanted to lock the county down.
“Got call last night from Mark Ghaly (Deputy Director for Community Health for the LA County Dept of Health Services). He has called me several times for advice,” the diary says. “Frantic call saying that they are surging in LA County and very soon hospital beds will be overrun. He wants to do a 3 weeks shutdown of the city to ‘stop the surge’ and wants my support since there is a large pushback to locking down. I agreed to support him.”

But again in 2022, when he joined The Hill’s “Rising” podcast, Fauci denied responsibility for lockdowns.
“Well, you know, again, first of all, I didn’t recommend locking anything down,” he claimed. “You’re asking me questions. You’re talking about the CDC is the public health agency that uses their epidemiologists and their science-based approach to make recommendations…”

Despite his own denials, Fauci himself told CBS news in the midst of the 2020 chaos that he was behind the lockdowns.
“When it became clear that we had community spread in the country, with a few cases of community spread — this was way before there was a major explosion like we saw in the northeastern corridor driven by New York City metropolitan area — I recommended to the president that we shut the country down,” he said on Oct. 7, 2020.
