Group of Flag Officers in Uniform assigned to the NIH. Dr. Fauci is in the front row, second from the left.

In this interview he discusses his motivation for joining PHS (Vietnam era, PHS most preferred):
Fauci, Anthony S. (March 7, 1989). "Interview with Dr. Anthony S. Fauci". In Their Own Words... NIH Researchers Recall the Early Tears of AIDS (Interview). Interviewed by Victoria A. Harden. National Institues of Health, Bethesda, Maryland: National Institutes of Health. Archived from the original on January 9, 2022. Retrieved July 23, 2022.

There are several instances of reference to his rank of Rear Admiral, such as this one:
Commissioned Officers Association of the U.S. Public Health Service (COA) (July 11, 2022). "Health Leader of the Year". Facebook. Facebook. Retrieved July 23, 2022.

However, a better reference may be this photo, that shows Dr. Fauci in uniform with the rank of Rear Admiral.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Narthecium (talk • contribs) 03:48, July 24, 2022 (UTC)

@Narthecium:  Partly done: I was able to find a reliable source regarding his years of service, according to a 1998 interview he retired in 1996 after 27 years of service, so after doing some WP:CALC that came out to 1969–1996. I was unable however to find a reliable source for his rank, and seeing as though we're dealing with WP:BLP, I'm not sure the cited Facebook posts passes that. The provided image convinces me personally, however I think that analysing ourselves from the photo that his rank at the time was a 2 star admiral, might constitute WP:OR even though it is right there.

Here is the interview containing the dates:

@M16A3NoRecoilHax: Here's a source for Dr. Fauci's rank of Rear Admiral (Upper) and a more precise retirement date of August 1996.

Although Fauci denied gain-of-function research, NIH released evidence to the contrary

"Add after" the existing line: In May 2021, Fauci denied that the National Institutes of Health supported "gain-of-function research" at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.[100]

"Add this:" There are assertions within the scientific community that the definition of "gain-of-function research" was changed by Fauci after accusations were made that he funded such research in Wuhan. Newly released NIH documents suggest, according to experts, that the US funded gain-of-function research in Wuhan.

New information regarding the vaccine

Date: 12/22

JUST IN - Gov. DeSantis receives approval from the Florida Supreme Court to impanel a grand jury to investigate mRNA COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers.

Source: https://notabird.site/disclosetv/status/1606031265345327106 ... DiscloseTV is a very reliable source. Even when talking about alien disclosure (lulz), they are far more believable than the rugs y'all prefer to believe like New York Birdcage Liner and Washington Poo.

Fauci's goose is almost cooked.

WP:NOTFORUM applies here to most of this statement, so please do not continue this. But an investigation if Fauci is under subpoena certainly would be encyclopedic on this article. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 06:01, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

@Jtbobwaysf: Disclose.tv is fake news, this discussion is pointless. I suggest deleting this section. User:Doug Weller

Need to correct Career section

Fauci’s Career section says he is still the NAID Director and should be corrected to state ghat his last day was Dec. 31, 2022 as the first section does. I cannot correct it because the page is locked. Ekbarber2 (talk) 05:30, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Corrected. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:54, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

Somewhat misleading paragraph.

The paragraph that claims is somewhat misleading. “Due to Trump's opposition to CDC mask wearing guidelines and social distancing measures, which Fauci advocated, Fauci was criticized by right-wing pundits and received death threats that necessitated a security detail”.

1. Trump embraced people wearing masks according to CDC guidlines. He opposed mandating that everyone wear masks. 2. Trump supported and extended the social distancing guidlines multiple times.

To claim Trump opposed social distancing is a lie. To claim he opposed CDC mask guidelines is a lie. He only imposed making it mandated.

I've taken out "Due to Trump's opposition to CDC mask wearing guidelines and social distancing measures, which Fauci advocated", as it's not supported by the sources inline. We should though say something there about why there was a rise in threats. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:47, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

New Photograph

I've just made a series of portraits of Dr Fauci at his home. I think this one would be a good update to the current photograph.

Proposed image 2

I've seen your new portrait photographs of Fauci and I'm impressed. However the proposed image's lighting is a bit too dark. I like this one better, it looks like an official portrait, the lighting is good and its a recent image. TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 19:07, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

Agree, the dark photo looks WP:PROMO as well, like its trying to make him a model. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 08:26, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
