The fact that Fauci used a bio weapon to kill millions around the globe is a huge crime. Your vaccine did nothing but spread the disease faster... who gives a shit about the rest. People did not need to suffer because of the mad scientist Dr. Fauci and even Harris would have  had to arrest him.

I think it was important that you pointed the source the author used because it was definitely questionable as a reader. Alongside the other comments, I agree that this source is a platform where individuals can post their opinions or claim without clear evidence, which is important to determine credibility. Thank you for pointing out the media the author used a source!

The claim that Fauci created a weapon that killed millions and the vaccine just made things worse is inaccurate and misguiding. This claim was posted by someone who has no credentials or other sources to support them and their information they are spreading.

Fauci did not create COVID-19 as it was first discovered in China in December of 2019. Written in an article from the World Health Organization, it's found that the virus was most likely transferred from an animal to a human.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9874793/

Looking at the Benefits of Getting Vaccinated from the CDC, it says that the vaccines did help protect your health, rather than thinking vaccines made everything worse. The vaccines have shown to reduce risk of critical illness from COVID-19 by 70% within the first 2 months after vaccination. It has significantly brought down the amount of people hospitalized by this virus and overall the vaccine did more good than harm.

The claim that the COVID-19 vaccine "did nothing but spread the disease faster" is false. Scientific studies and public health data show that the vaccine significantly reduced the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death. The main issue in the United States wasn't that the vaccine was ineffective -- it was that too many people chose not to get vaccinated, which weakened the country's pandemic response.

As the New York Times Magazine put it:
"American vaccination rates never approached the levels of peer nations -- and the problem wasn't just the anti-vaccine right."
 

This quote is key. The article highlights that vaccines were not the issue -- the real issue was that too many Americans chose not to take them, or delayed getting boosted. In countries with higher vaccine uptake, COVID-related deaths and hospitalizations were much lower. The United States experienced more deaths largely because a sizable portion of the population refused or delayed vaccination.
