The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

On Aug. 10, Sens. Ron Johnson and Rand Paul released 11 January 2021 texts from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s government-issued phone, drawn from more than 34,000 records, about COVID-19 vaccination guidance for pregnant women. The messages show Fauci, the surgeon general and the CDC director discussing how to weigh benefits against potential risks. Fauci raised a theoretical first-trimester miscarriage concern tied to fever and cytokine responses after a second mRNA dose. Days later, he publicly said thousands of vaccinated pregnant women had shown “no red flags.”
