we beat this subject up pretty good back in March.
Seems Fauci should have known about the 2005 study. I always wondered why Dr. Fauci didn't know.
291 articles cited that article and each of those articles were cited by other articles...I only checked the 291 articles and a couple of the articles citing those articles and it seems strange not one mention of Fauci as a contributor\commenter in any of them one way or the other ?
Here's Fauci's take in 2013 on existing drugs to use for new viruses.

"That's particularly encouraging, because these drugs, now used to treat hepatitis C, are widely available, says Anthony Fauci, director of the infectious-disease institute, which financed the research. "We don't have to start designing new drugs," a process that takes years, Fauci says. "The next time someone comes into an emergency room in Qatar or Saudi Arabia, you would have drugs that are readily available. And at least you would have some data."
Also, this 10 minute video from 2009 re: H1N1 is somewhat deadly to today's Fauci...

I’d bet my bottom dollar that Fauxi knows. Probably even more than this. In his position as NIAID institute head and likely reviewer of data for publication in top-tier journals on this topic, a lot would cross his desk that he could stop or divert or massage. And he knew about it back in 2005 or before.
My central point is, the publication, date, time, process, institution etc just do not REQUIRE that he knew. He could deny or brush off data from an in vivo study —no matter how well done or promising— rather easily.
