This is an incredibly important point. So many good people who go in to fix totally corrupted institutions get chewed up and spat out within five minutes, after which the institution carries on exactly as before. Some have criticized Jay Bhattacharya for seemingly playing along with the corrupt old guard, including allowing the deeply compromised Taubenberger to be Fauci’s successor. But Dr Bhattacharya has been proceeding methodically and surgically, and we may now actually end up with Dr Quay as the new Fauci, which would be an extraordinary outcome. None of this would have been possible if Dr Bhattacharya had charged in like a bull in a china shop. The institutional machinery would have closed ranks, destroyed him, forced him out, and carried on exactly as before.
