You gotta see this to believe it.
Yes, the man that said a vaccine was no possible anytime soon, he claimed it would take at least 18 months, is now trying to take credit for the coronavirus vaccine.
We all know it was President Trump who authorized “Operation Warp Speed” that allowed for a vaccine to be developed in less than a year.
Below is a video of President Trump giving hope early on that a vaccine was on the way and Fauci throwing cold water on it.

President Trump never wavered despite the backlash he got from Democrats and the media and now Fauci wants to take all the credit.
“When I saw what happened in New York City, almost overrunning of our health care system, it was like, ‘Oh my goodness,’ ” Fauci told CNN correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta on “COVID WAR: The Pandemic Doctors Speak Out.”
“And that’s when it became very clear that the decision we made on January the 10th – to go all out and develop a vaccine – may have been the best decision that I’ve ever made with regard to an intervention as director of the institute.”

Meanwhile, Fauci boss, Dr. Francis Collins, Director of the National Institutes of Health has declared the only reason why America has a vaccine for the coronavirus is because of President Trump and members of his administration.
“The Operation Warp Speed, for which I give a great deal of credit to [former Health and Human Services] Secretary [Alex] Azar, was an effort that many of us were not initially convinced was going to be necessary,” Collins told the program.
“It was thought about as a Manhattan Project,” he continued.
