Amazing repost by our insecure NIH director @DrJBhattacharya. Fauci, whatever you think of him, was a prolific and established scientist as well as a practicing physician. Besides, Jay didn't replace Fauci. Were Bertagnolli, Tabak, and Collins not scientists? lol

@BenMazer @DrJBhattacharya For what it's worth, Fauci had a year with almost as many citations (12,000) as @DrJBhattacharya's entire career (18,000).
