Newly released messages from Anthony Fauci’s government-issued phone are raising new questions about what public health officials were saying privately during the COVID era versus what Americans were being told publicly.

Buck argues that the Fauci files aren’t just about relitigating the past, but about accountability, restoring trust in public health, and ensuring that the mistakes of the pandemic are never repeated.
