Tuskegee, Alabama. Trust, veracity, truth, and responsibility.....

"Doctor Fauci... are you concerned with the US public's participation rate on getting the Corona vaccine?"

"You are?   That's understandable I think.  Doctor Fauci, can you postulate any reasons why US Citizens might be leery of a government mandated vaccine?"

"No?  Can't name any specific thing that comes to mind?   Doctor Fauci... what state has the lowest percentage of vaccinated citizens?"

"Alabama!  Correct!  Well done Doctor.  Now, what could be so special about Alabama that the citizens there are shying away from vaccines offered... no... ordered by the US Government?"

"Stuck again, Doctor Fauci?   Lets try a different line of questions then.   Doctor Fauci, can you describe the CDC's role in the Tuskegee experiments please?  Doctor, you ARE the head of the CDC, are you not?"

"Doctor Fauci, I do not understand your silence after that question.  Doctor, it's very simple really.  The US Government through the Public Health Services, lied to the American public, and allowed minority American citizens to die of a treatable disease just so the government could watch them die.  The CDC took over this project and ran it for over 20 years, before the public found out and demanded it ended.  Doctor Fauci... It was a CDC program centered on lying to the public and watching people die.  You are the head of the CDC.   Can't you NOW think of a reason the people of Arkansas, where the city of Tuskegee exists, might not trust a government vaccine program?"

"Doctor!  Doctor!  Why are you leaving, Doctor? We are having cookies right after the CDC provided slide presentation about Tuskegee!"
