Sens. Rand Paul and Ron Johnson released more than 34,000 text messages from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s government cellphone obtained by Senate committees. The January 2021 messages discuss theoretical miscarriage risks from post-vaccination fever and cytokine responses, while an August 2021 public statement by Fauci cited CDC data showing no increased adverse outcomes. The release has prompted differing interpretations regarding transparency and evolving public health guidance.
