Fauci supported review paper sets the stage for pandemic “prototype vaccines”

In a private meeting in February 2017, Dr Barney Graham pitched his “brainchild” Prototype Vaccine Project to the NIAID executives which included Dr. Fauci who said the idea struck him and others in the executive committee “as something that is really doable.”

Following that meeting, on December 14, 2017, Dr Graham published a review paper outlining the proposal in Nature Immunology titled “Emerging viral diseases from a vaccinology perspective: preparing for the next pandemic“, in which Fauci provided “editorial comments” and the NIAID supported.  This paper sets the stage for moving forward with “prototype vaccines” for all pathogens with pandemic potential!

The paper stated “developing rational candidate vaccines directed against at least one prototype virus within each major phenotypic category within each family of viruses is advisable”

The paper concluded that “[p]reparation for emerging viral disease will be an inherent component of achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDG)”

“But without the urgency of a threatening pandemic, his [Dr Graham‘s] idea remained just that.” stated the New York Times on July 25, 2021, as Fauci seeks funding the “brainchild” project!
