The doctor did not mince words when assessing Fauci&#8217;s pandemic leadership and his continued refusal to acknowledge the damage caused by prolonged shutdowns.<\/p>\n<p>Yohanan told podcast host <strong>Miranda Devine<\/strong> that Fauci has throughout his career been fixated on vaccines as a one-size-fits-all solution to public health challenges, describing him as someone who <em>certainly does not lack for ego<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Fauci spearheaded the nation&#8217;s COVID response and became the public face of policies that saw schools and businesses shuttered for extended periods in the name of social distancing. The fallout from these decisions continues to reverberate through American society years later.<\/p>\n<h2>No Accountability<\/h2>\n<p>The physician was particularly critical of Fauci&#8217;s apparent desire for recognition without corresponding willingness to accept responsibility for policy failures. According to Yohanan, the former White House medical advisor sought the spotlight but has shown zero interest in being held accountable for the consequences of his recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>When confronted with criticism, Fauci has consistently defended his pandemic-era decisions by pointing to the evolving nature of scientific understanding. At a congressional hearing in June, he argued that recommendations must adapt as new information emerges during an outbreak, and that changing guidelines represents proper scientific process rather than error.<\/p>\n<p>Yohanan dismissed this defense entirely. As an advocate for individual healthcare choices, she stated bluntly that Fauci violated his physician&#8217;s oath, which should carry real meaning and weight.<\/p>\n<h2>Fury Over Harm to Children and Small Businesses<\/h2>\n<p>Speaking both as a medical professional and as a mother, Yohanan expressed anger at the damage inflicted on her profession and on children who were barred from attending school. She emphasized that these were not mere inconveniences but serious harms with lasting consequences.<\/p>\n<p>The doctor pointed to families whose livelihoods were destroyed when their businesses were forced to close, noting that Fauci still appears not to grasp the severity of what occurred. The COVID shutdowns should serve as a cautionary tale for future public health responses, she argued.<\/p>\n<p>The economic and social cost of pandemic lockdowns has been staggering. Millions of children experienced significant gaps in education and social development. Unemployment reached record highs. The Congressional Budget Office has projected total lost economic output of $7.6 trillion over the coming decade as a direct result of shutdown policies.<\/p>\n<h2>New Vaccine Schedule<\/h2>\n<p>Beyond her criticism of Fauci, Yohanan also discussed her advisory role in developing the White House&#8217;s new vaccine schedule. The revised guidance suggests administering measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines separately rather than in a combined shot, citing concerns about potential elevated autism risk.<\/p>\n<p>The physician characterized the new approach as more sensible, emphasizing that it does not require abandoning all vaccines but rather encourages parents to have informed discussions with their doctors about immunization decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Yohanan framed the shift as part of a broader movement toward respecting parental authority in healthcare decisions. She welcomed the development of parents demanding to be treated as partners in managing their children&#8217;s health and their own medical care, viewing this as a positive long-term trend.<\/p>\n<p>The interview aired Wednesday on Pod Force One, where Post columnist Miranda Devine conducts conversations with influential figures in Washington.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:right\"><em>With information from <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Post<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A White House physician advisor harshly criticized Anthony Fauci for promoting lockdowns and vaccine mandates, saying he betrayed his medical oath and seeks recognition without accountability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":51,"featured_media":17106,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[122],"tags":[6522,12844,12846,12843,278,12845,354],"nfg_topic":[135],"class_list":["post-17107","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-anthony-fauci","tag-covid-19-policies","tag-lockdowns","tag-monique-yohanan","tag-usa","tag-vaccine-mandates","tag-white-house","nfg_topic-world"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17107","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/51"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17107"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17107\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17108,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17107\/revisions\/17108"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17106"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17107"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17107"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17107"},{"taxonomy":"nfg_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/nfg_topic?post=17107"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
