I enjoy this very much and have done this several times over the past few years. They are an outstanding group of about a dozen individuals from various walks of life many of which have served in the military including in the special forces; practicing physicians; lawyers, among others. I enjoy speaking with them because they are the cream of the crop and give me hope for our nation particularly in the context of the incredible divisiveness and disregard for the truth and integrity that we are seeing now in our nation.

Anthony S. Fauci
Dec. 2, 2022 I am really being somewhat embarrassed by the amount of honors that are be given to me and kudos my way. For example, today we went to the Hay-Adams hotel for a ceremony commemorating PEPFAR and world aids day. The ceremony involved multiple speeches including a speech by secretary of state Tony Blinken in which he effusely praised me for my role as an architect of pepfar as well as for decades of my contribution to HIV aids research and research in general. In addition, we had a fireside chat led by Sandy Thurman between John Kkengasong and myself. The entire ceremony at the hay Adams included multiple crazy by several people on me. As I said it was somewhat embarrassing since I do not like that kind of attention. Story in Today's SF Chronicle celebrating World AIDS Day: "When the history of AIDS in 1989 is written, the transformation of Anthony Fauci may well emerge as one of the most dramatic -- and consequential -- of human interest stories," Shilts wrote for The Chronicle that year. and throughout the world.

Dec. 4, 2022 Wonderful afternoon at the White House and evening at the Kennedy Center. Actor George Clooney, singer-songwriter Amy Grant, singer Gladys Knight, composer Tania León and rock group U2 were celebrated as the Kenney Center Awards. I was the guest of secretary Becerra at a White House reception with the President that occurred at 3:30 PM before we all motorcaded to the Kennedy Center for the ceremonies of the awards. It was a star-studded evening and I had pleasant conversations with people some of whom I had met before such as Julia Roberts, Sean Penn, Matt Damon, Mike Ferrone, among many others. It was a spectacular event mixing entertainment with honoring the honorees. The situation was somewhat unusual as I was completely swamped with people yelling my name and applauding it as I left the vehicle in front of the Kennedy Center and walked that long red carpet walk to the theater. There must have been hundreds of people lined up behind a rope down area and I was amazed how this recognition of me has reached such a height. I am certainly not getting a big head about it but it is rather weird and a little bit unnerving. Joked with Hunter Biden as we shook and hands and hugged. He said if someone snapped a photo and put it on line, the internet "would explode" given we are both being attacked by the far right GOP

Dec. 6, 2022 A very touching tribute and "good-bye" to me by the AAI Council. I regularly for 38 years on an annual basis address the council here in Bethesda, they gave me a very warm last meeting with a prolonged standing ovation as I walked into the room. Terrific evening at Jeff Zients's home. He had a reception on the occasion of making available online the tapes of conversations between Richard Stengel (Editor of Time Magazine) and Nelson Mandela. Mandela attended Jeff and Mary's wedding as did Richard. Had nice conversation with Merrick Garland and I encouraged him that we have faith in his judgment and integrity to do the right thing regarding the issues with Trump.
