Fauci wins $1 million prize for 'courageously defending science'
'In the face of uninformed opposition' during the COVID crisis

White House coronavirus adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci has won a $1 million prize for "defending science" from the Israel-based Dan David Foundation.

Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984, earned the recognition for a lifetime of leadership on HIV research and AIDS relief as well as his advocacy for the vaccines against COVID-19, reported the Associated Press.

In an apparent reference to Fauci's many critics, including at times his former boss President Trump, the foundation credited Fauci with "courageously defending science in the face of uninformed opposition during the challenging COVID crisis."

"As the COVID-19 pandemic unraveled, [Fauci] leveraged his considerable communication skills to address people gripped by fear and anxiety and worked relentlessly to inform individuals in the United States and elsewhere about the public health measures essential for containing the pandemic's spread," the foundation's awards committee said.

The panel praised him for "speaking truth to power in a highly charged political environment."

Fauci's critics, however, point to many flip-flops on major issues related to the pandemic, accusing him of make declarations based more on politics and his personal reputation rather than on science.

In April, Fauci said in an MSNBC interview that he became aware that the outbreak would become a pandemic "towards the middle to end of January" of 2020.

In a Jan. 21, 2020, interview, however, he said the coronavirus was "not a major threat" to the U.S.
