scientifically compatible. Vitamin A, maybe he knows more than I do. Well of course he knows more than I do on that topic. So I don't really have an opinion on it.

And if you think that that's the reason that Fauci is saying that hydroxychloroquine is unproven and maybe we should wait, well I would say he should say that no matter what. So you'd have to find something that Fauci has said or recommended that he would not say or recommend absent a connection to some pharmaceutical company.

There's a reason that they think it might work. It's well tolerated. Everything Fauci said, everything a hundred percent of what Fauci says, any doctor would have said in that situation no matter what connection they had to the pharmaceuticals.
So but it is true then when people have big financial interests it can bias them. It's just that if you're looking for it in whether he should be more pro hydroxychloroquine, I don't think you could ask any doctor to be that way. I don't think that's... not that you would ask any doctor. Fauci is not promoting vitamins. Well he's promoted vitamin D. Can somebody fact check me on that? Has Dr. Fauci never said that it would be good to take a walk and get some sun, get some vitamin D? I don't know if he said that but I bet he has. Doctors, I don't know if doctors push vitamins so much because there's a lot of competing information in vitamins.
