What would Anthony Fauci tell his sister about the transmission of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and its relationship to AIDS?
From an interview with Anthony Fauci
Fauci: I have a sister, Denise, who is three years
older than I. She is a well-educated woman, a college graduate, a former
schoolteacher, who left her profession to raise her family. She represents
what I would consider the middle class, the upper-middle class, intelligent
person in America. There are many misperceptions about HIV, such as the
ones seen in the newspapers that are media-driven misperceptions, the
ones that are scientist-driven misperceptions, things that inevitably
will be misinterpreted. I get a good handle on how the general public
is interpreting information by my sister's response to me and to anything
else that is in the newspapers on HIV.
For example, I knew that people
were wondering seriously about whether HIV was the cause of AIDS, when
[Peter] Duesberg was campaigning intensively trying to convince people
that HIV was not the cause of AIDS, because my sister would call me up
and say, “Anthony”–she is one of the few people besides
my father who calls me Anthony now–are you sure that HIV causes
AIDS?" When she calls and asks me that, I know that the general public
is wondering about that.
When there was talk about incidents
like some of the scares we have had about children getting AIDS in school,
and whether they can get it from their classmates, I would say, “No.
All the data show that a child would not get it from his or her classmates.”
My sister would call and say, “I am worried about my grandson, or
my granddaughter, who is in kindergarten. Can they get AIDS from someone
who has a cut?" If she is worried about this, then so is the rest
of country. Denise has served as a nice barometer for me of what people
are sometimes afraid to say, but what they really worry about.
