    “I am talking about people all across the world are saying this,” she claimed.
    Yad Vashem Chairman Dani Dayan “strongly condemned the use of the Holocaust, its images and characters associated with it, to further agendas and causes of any kind that are totally unrelated to the Holocaust.”
    “Manipulating the Holocaust in this way trivializes the horrific atrocities that were perpetrated, and denigrates the memory of the victims and the survivors,” he stated.
    Mengele was known as the “Angel of Death” for performing medical experiments at Auschwitz, especially on twins.

    The Auschwitz Memorial stated that “exploiting the tragedy of people who became victims of criminal pseudo-medical experiments in Auschwitz in a debate about vaccines, pandemic and people who fight for saving human lives is shameful. It is disrespectful to victims and a sad symptom of moral and intellectual decline.”
    Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, stated that “there’s absolutely no comparison between COVID-19 mitigation efforts and what happened to Jews during the Holocaust. This includes making outlandish analogies suggesting Dr. Fauci is akin to Nazi war criminal Josef Mengele, known for his gruesome medical experiments on prisoners.”

    He might be worse
    The accusation is not without some merit. While the investigation into the origins of covid have just started, the pandemic has resulted in deaths across the world. Certain over the counter immune booster medications exist that he declared dangerous and not fit for human consumption contra to the experts in the field that are effective thereby restricting their use resulting in countless deaths that could have been prevented

    If it's true that "gain of function" labs funded by U.S. dollars through Fauci produced the covid 19 virus, then Fauci may not be a psychopathic sadist but he may be causing a lot of harm for the whole human race
