Dr. Anthony Fauci Is Giving A Virtual Lecture At McGill's Homecoming

America's most stanned public health official.
Reporter

Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and chief medical advisor to the past seven U.S. presidents Dr. Anthony Fauci will be giving a virtual lecture hosted by McGill University in Montreal to "communicate the science behind the COVID-19 pandemic."

Fauci will be McGill's 67th Beatty lecturer — which McGill calls "one of the longest-running lecture series in North America" — on October 1.

Fauci championed mask-wearing early on in the pandemic and was integral in developing the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) — "a program that has saved millions of lives throughout the developing world since its launch in 2003," according to McGill's lecture announcement.

"Dr. Anthony Fauci has faced the COVID-19 pandemic with unfaltering determination, scientific evidence and humanity," wrote Martha Crago, host of the Beatty Lectures.

"I look forward with excitement to welcoming him, virtually, to our campus community."

The lecture is open to the public and free to view.
