EXCERPT:
FAUCI: "Well, I don't reject basic immunology, senator. And I have never denied that there is importance of the protection following infection. However, as we have said many times, and it has -- has been validated by the authorization of the -- by the FDA through their committee and the recommendation by the CDC through their committee, that a vaccination following infection gives an added extra boost. And that film that you showed, is really taken out of context. I believe that was when someone called in who had had a reaction to a vaccine, and asked me through a telephone in the interview, if they should get vaccinated again. So it was in the context of someone who had a reaction. And as a matter of fact, Reuters fact-checked, looked at that, and said, Fauci's 2004 comments do not contradict his pandemic stands."
PAUL: "Actually -- actually, words don't lie. If you look at the words behind me, we could go with them a little bit at a time, she doesn't need it, because the most potent vaccination --"
FAUCI: "Right."
PAUL: "-- is getting infected yourself. So --"
FAUCI: "It is true. It is true, senator. It is a very potent way to protect."
PAUL: "But when you're trying to tell us that kids need a third or a fourth vaccine, are you including the variability or the variable of previous infection in the studies? No, you're not. Because when you have approved vaccines in recent times, and the committee's that are approved them for children, don't report anything on hospitalization, or death or transmission."
