Associated Press: “Dr. Anthony Fauci has won the $1 million Dan David Prize for ‘defending science’ and advocating for vaccines now being administered worldwide to fight the coronavirus pandemic.
“The Israel-based Dan David Foundation on Monday named President Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser as the winner of one of three prizes. It said he had earned the recognition over a lifetime of leadership on HIV research and AIDS relief, as well as his advocacy for the vaccines against COVID-19.
“In its statement, the private foundation did not mention former President Donald Trump, who undermined Fauci’s follow-the-science approach to the pandemic. But it credited Fauci with ‘courageously defending science in the face of uninformed opposition during the challenging COVID crisis.'”
