>Fauci overwhelmed by calls after journal published mistake over beagle experiments

 

The nation's top infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci has been inundated with calls following a mistake in a scientific journal claiming that the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) was funding experimental research on beagles.

 

The calls were so frequent that Fauci's assistant stopped answering the phone for two weeks in October, The Washington Post reported Friday.

 

He received 3,600 phone calls in 36 hours.

 

“The constant harassment in the form of ridiculous accusations and outright lies makes doing my job and that of my staff of fighting the covid-19 pandemic all the more difficult,” Fauci told the Post. “This attack on me, which clearly has political overtones to a nonpolitical scientist, I feel, is dangerous to the entire field of science and [shows] how people try to intimidate scientists.”

 

According to the Post, Fauci received messages from impassioned and angry callers who went so far as threatening to "hang him."

 

Fauci and the NIAID were drawn into the controversy after a July edition of the PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases Journal published information that the federal agency was funding beagle experiments in Tunisia.

 

In those experiments, researchers infected the puppies with sand flies and trapped their heads in mesh cages. The NIAID has denied involvement with that study, and the journal later issued a correction in October.

 

However, an animal rights organization, White Coat Waste Project, has continued to claim that Fauci and the NIAID funded the research.
