AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
Dr. Anthony Fauci privately raised concerns that the COVID-19 vaccine could "theoretically" be linked to miscarriages in expectant mothers, despite having publicly insisted there were "no red flags" for pregnant women.
"I asked around a bit more and another issue came up that you need to be aware of," wrote Fauci in a Jan. 25, 2021, text exchange with then-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky and Surgeon General Vivek Murthy.
