A Question of Credibility

People look to “experts” for advice when the person has proven to the public that he or she is, indeed, an expert. A very important criterion people consider, after accepting the person’s expertise, is credibility. If an expert has none, then he or she cannot be a leader or offer advice to the public about anything. We all know about the “boy who cried wolf.” That description seems to fit Dr. Anthony Fauci, who has now lost all credibility and thus no longer has any standing to advise the public about anything, much less COVID-19.
