>> Dicky: FROM HOLLYWOOD, IT'S "JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE!"
TONIGHT, ROSARIO DAWSON, DR. ANTHONY FAUCI, AND MUSIC
FROM ANITTA. AND NOW, JIMMY KIMMEL!
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: OH, HI, THERE. I'M JIMMY, I'M THE HOST.
THANKS FOR WATCHING. I'M GLAD WE'RE TOGETHER.
I WANT YOU GUYS TO KNOW SOMETHING.
YOU ARE, AND I MEAN THIS ‐‐ YOU ARE THE BILL TO MY MELINDA, SO
THANK YOU.
[ LAUGHTER ]
BILL AND MELINDA GATES YESTERDAY ANNOUNCED THAT THEY HAVE DECIDED
TO PART WAYS AFTER 27 YEARS OF MARRIAGE.
THEY GOT THE 27‐YEAR ITCH, I GUESS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
THE SPLIT IS SAID TO BE AMICABLE, THEY'VE ALREADY AGREED
TO A CUSTODY ARRANGEMENT. BILL GETS TO SPEND TIME WITH
THEIR MONEY ON TUESDAY NIGHTS AND EVERY OTHER WEEKEND.
[ LAUGHTER ]
MELINDA GETS IT THE REST. THEY HAVE A COMBINED ESTIMATED
WORTH OF AT LEAST $134 BILLION. WHEN YOU'RE THAT RICH, WHY DO
YOU EVEN NEED TO GET DIVORCED? CAN'T THEY JUST LIVE IN SEPARATE
WINGS?
[ LAUGHTER ]
POOR BILL GATES. HE'S BEEN SLEEPING IN HIS JET.
IT'S VERY SAD.
[ LAUGHTER ]
BUT HE'S GETTING BACK OUT THERE, HE'S ALREADY GOT A PROFILE ON
TINDER.
[ LAUGHTER ]
THAT PHOTO IS A LITTLE BIT DATED. AND HE ALSO HAS A KILLER
WINGMAN. REMEMBER THIS GUY? YEAH.
[ LAUGHTER ]
HE'S DEAD NOW. DIED OVER THE SUMMER.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WHO WOULD YOU DATE IF YOU WERE BILL GATES?
THERE'S ONLY ONE PERSON YOU KNOW FOR SURE ISN'T IN IT FOR THE
MONEY. JEFF BEZOS. IMAGINE IF THOSE TWO GOT MARRIED?
[ LAUGHTER ]
YOU KNOW WHO I WOULD LIKE TO SEE BILL GATES DATE? KIM KARDASHIAN.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WOULDN'T THAT BE SOMETHING?
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
TAKES HIM HOME TO MEET CAITLYN JENNER. OH, MAN.
THEY'D SELL SO MUCH LIPLINER, THE LIKES WOULD BE THROUGH THE
ROOF. ANYWAY, YOU HATE TO SEE ANYONE
SPLIT UP, ESPECIALLY AFTER 27 YEARS, BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS
THAT, SINCE MELINDA IS FULLY VACCINATED, BILL WILL STILL BE
ABLE TO TRACK HER WHEREVER SHE GOES.
[ LAUGHTER ]
STARTING AS EARLY AS NEXT WEEK, THE FDA IS EXPECTED TO AUTHORIZE
USE OF THE PFIZER VACCINE FOR CHILDREN AGES 12 TO 15.
PRESIDENT BIDEN SAID TODAY HE HOPES 70% OF AMERICAN ADULTS
WILL GET AT LEAST THEIR FIRST DOSE BY THE 4th OF JULY.
HE SAID IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE'RE AT LEAST POTENTIAL
VACCINATED BY THAT DATE TO MAKE ROOM IN THE HOSPITALS FOR GUYS
WHO BLOW THEIR FINGERS OFF WITH FIRECRACKERS ON INDEPENDENCE DAY.
[ LAUGHTER ]
GRAMPOTUS IS ALSO REACHING OUT DIRECTLY TO THE KIDS, WITH THE
KIND OF HIP TECH KNOW‐HOW YOU RARELY EXPECT FROM A 78‐YEAR‐OLD
MAN.
>> VISIT VACCINES.COM ‐‐ DOT
GO GOFF‐DOT COM OR TEXT YOUR ZIP
CODE TO 448829.
>> Jimmy: EASY AS PIE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
OLD BAZOOKA JOE, GOING ON AND ON ABOUT GUM AGAIN.
THIS IS INTERESTING, THE NEXT ROUND OF COVID VACCINES MIGHT
NOT BE SHOTS. SEVERAL COMPANIES ARE DEVELOPING
VACCINES THAT CAN BE TAKEN AS A PILL OR SPRAYED INTO YOUR NOSE.
WOULDN'T IT BE FUNNY IF ALL THESE ANTI‐VAXXERS SUDDENLY
DECIDED TO GET THE VACCINE BECAUSE OF THAT?
TURNED OUT, ALL THIS TIME, THEY WERE JUST SCARED OF NEEDLES?
[ LAUGHTER ]
I'M WAITING UNTIL THE VACCINE COMES IN A CAN OF MONSTER ENERGY
DRINK.
[ LAUGHTER ]
TODAY, IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW, AND CONGRATULATIONS IF YOU
DON'T, IS "STAR WARS" DAY.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
"MAY THE FOURTH" BE WITH YOU. THIS IS A HOLIDAY FOR PEOPLE WHO
HEAR YOU SAY "BABY YODA" AND THEY GO "ACTUALLY, IT'S GROWGU."
[ LAUGHTER ]
THIS IS A TRADITION THAT DATES BACK ‐‐ YOU KNOW HOW FAR THIS
GOES BACK?
>> Guillermo: LONG TIME, JIMMY.
>> Jimmy: HOW FAR BACK?
>> Guillermo: MAYBE 100 YEARS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I DON'T KNOW, A LONG TIME.
>> Jimmy: 100 YEARS?
>> Guillermo: I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T KNOW.
>> Jimmy: WE KNOW I DON'T DON'T KNOW.
YOU THINK "STAR WARS" IS 100 YEARS OLD?
>> Guillermo: NO MAYBE 20 YEARS, 40 YEARS, I DON'T KNOW.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: YOU'RE NOW CLOSE. THE TRADITION DATES BACK TO
1979, THE DAY MARGARET THATCHER TOOK OFFICE AS PRIME MINISTER OF
ENGLAND. WE GOT ONE ENGLISH GUY LAUGHING
LIKE I'M KIDDING, BUT I'M NOT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
THIS IS AN AD HER PARTY TOOK OUT IN THE PAPER, "MAY THE FOURTH BE
WITH YOU, MAGGIE, CONGRATULATIONS."
AND "STAR WARS" DAY WAS BORN. "STAR WARS," OF COURSE, IS A
GREAT MOVIE. A LOT OF PEOPLE CALL IT A
WESTERN IN SPACE, BUT TO ME, IT'S THE TIMELESS STORY OF A
TEENAGE BOY LEARNING HOW TO USE HIS PENIS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
[ LAUGHTER ]
THINK ABOUT IT. HE INHERITS HIS DAD'S "LIGHT
SABER," AND AT FIRST HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO USE IT.
HE GETS ALL NERVOUS, AND THEN THIS WEIRD UNCLE SHOWS UP IN A
ROBE, "JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND LET IT HAPPEN."
[ LAUGHTER ]
THEN HE DOES, HE FIRES EVERYTHING HE'S GOT UP THE
CERVIX OF A GIANT EGG CALLED THE DEATH STAR AND IT EXPLODES.
IT'S JUST LIKE PUBERTY, REALLY.
[ LAUGHTER ]
IT'S A CLASSIC.
[ APPLAUSE ]
ANYWAY, TODAY IS "STAR WARS" TODAY. TOMORROW IS CINCO DE MAYO.
SO WE CAME UP WITH A CHARACTER THAT HONORS BOTH THESE SPECIAL
DAYS SIMULTANEOUSLY. WITH THAT I'D LIKE TO WELCOME,
CHEWBACCAMOLE, EVERYBODY!
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
THIS IS CHEWBACCAMOLE.
♪
>> Jimmy: THANKS, CHEWBACCAMOLE, EVERYBODY.
>> RRRRR‐YI‐YI‐YI‐YOO!
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: BACK TO THE CANTINA YOU GO.
THAT BIT, SOMEBODY SAID WOULDN'T IT BE FUNNY, FOR CINCO DE MAYO
AND MAY THE FOURTH WE HAD CHEWBACCAMOLE?
I SAID, YEAH, THAT WOULD BE FUNNY. THAT'S WHERE THE WRITING
STOPPED.
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: YOU KNOW HOW CHEWBACCAMOLE'S BEST FRIEND IS?
>> Guillermo: NO.
>> Jimmy: FLAN SOLO.
[ LAUGHTER ]
GET IT?
>> Guillermo: A LITTLE BIT, YEAH.
>> Jimmy: A LITTLE BIT. IF YOU TOGETHER IT, WHO WILL?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Guillermo: WHAT A WRITER.
>> Jimmy: YOU THINK HARRISON FORD LEAVES THE HOUSE ON MAY 4th?
HE PROBABLY DOESN'T LEAVE THE HOUSE ANYWAY, ESPECIALLY ON MAY
4th. PEOPLE ARE CRAZY ABOUT "STAR WARS."
I WAS 9 WHEN IT CAME OUT. IT WAS IN MY WHEELHOUSE.
UNCLE FRANK TOOK TO US SEE IT. HE FELL ASLEEP IMMEDIATELY UPON
SITTING DOWN.
[ LAUGHTER ]
SLEPT THROUGH THE WHOLE MOVIE, WOKE UP, SAID IT WAS BORING.
[ LAUGHTER ]
BUT WE LOVED IT. NOW I WANT TO SHOW THE "STAR
WARS" SAGA TO MY KIDS BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT ORDER TO SHOW IT
TO THEM. FOR ME, THE FIRST ONE WAS THE
FIRST ONE. SO DO I SHOW THEM THAT?
OR DO I SHOW "THE PHANTOM MENACE" FIRST?
SINCE IT'S EPISODE I? IN ORDER, WHICH WOULD MAKE SENSE?
BUT DO I REALLY WANT TO KICK THINGS OFF WITH JAR JAR BINKS?
NOT REALLY.
[ LAUGHTER ]
YOU KNOW HOW THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WILL GUIDE YOU THROUGH A
MUSHROOM TRIP?
[ LAUGHTER ]
I NEED THAT FOR "STAR WARS." A GUIDE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
THERE'S SO MUCH TO WATCH NOW. THERE'S SO MUCH "STAR WARS."
AND THIS IS INTERESTING. WITH ALL THE PREQUELS AND
SEQUELS AND TV SHOWS IN THE "STAR WARS" UNIVERSE, THERE'S
ONE PRETTY MAJOR CHARACTER WE NEVER SAW ON‐SCREEN AGAIN AFTER
"THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK."
>> AAHH!
>> Jimmy: THAT IS THE CHARACTER RIGHT THERE LUKE SIGH WALKER'S
SEVERED HAND. IT FELL DOWN A CHUTE, WENT INTO
COMPLETE OBSCURITY FOR 41 YEARS. UNTIL TONIGHT.
WE WERE ABLE TO PULL SOME STRINGS WITH THE LUCAS PEOPLE,
AND? HONOR OF "STAR WARS" DAY, WE TRACKED IT DOWN.
PLEASE NOW SAY HELLO TO LUKE SKYWALKER'S HAND.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
HELLO, LUKE'S HAND. THANKS FOR BEING WITH US.
ARE YOU HAVING A GOOD MAY THE FOURTH SO FAR?
GOOD, I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT. HOW HAVE YOU BEEN SINCE THE LAST
TIME WE SAW YOU? OH, RIGHT. BECAUSE YOU GOT SLICED OFF, YOU
FELL DOWN ‐‐ THAT MUST HAVE SUCKED, I CAN UNDERSTAND, YES,
RIGHT. THERE IS ANYTHING YOU WANT TO
SAY TO THE LEGIONS OF FANS WHO HAVE BEEN MISSING YOU FOR ALL
THESE YEARS? PEACE, AND LOVE. THAT'S NICE, NICE.
ANYTHING YOU'D LIKE TO SAY TO DARTH VADER, THE MAN RESPONSIBLE
FOR SEPARATING YOU FROM YOUR ARM?
[ LAUGHTER ]
OH, WELL. I GUESS I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU'RE UPSET. THANKS FOR CHATTING WITH US
TONIGHT ‐‐ OH, FOR ‐‐ WAIT, NO, NO. NO, CHEWBACCAMOLE ‐‐ NO!
NO! WELL.
THAT'S WHY THEY CALL HIM CHEWY, I GUESS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I TOLD YOU, WE STOPPED WRITING A LITTLE PREMATURELY.
[ LAUGHTER ]
JUST BEFORE WE GOT TO THE JOKE, WE STOPPED.
THE FORCE IS WITH US TONIGHT. SO IS DR. FAUCI.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
JOINING US FROM A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY.
DR. ANTHONY FAUCI WILL VISIT. HE IS PROMOTING HIS NEW
FRAGRANCE, "INOCULATION."
[ LAUGHTER ]
I WAS THINKING, WHAT AN INCREDIBLE CAREER THIS MAN HAS
HAD. AIDS, SWINE FLU, EBOLA, COVID.
ALL THE GREATS. DR. FAUCI HAS SERVED AS AN
ADVISOR TO SEVEN DIFFERENT PRESIDENTS.
AND THIS IS GOOD, PAY ATTENTION TO THE DIFFERENCE IN HIS

MORE THAN 100 MILLION ADULTS IN THE UNITED STATES ARE FULLY
VACCINATED, WHICH IS GOOD. UNFORTUNATELY, MORE THAN 1 IN 4
SAY THEY'RE NOT PLANNING TO GET THE VACCINE EVER.
26% OF AMERICANS ARE PLANNING TO SKIP THE SHOT ALTOGETHER.
WHICH IS CRAZY TO ME. I GET THAT PEOPLE ARE SKEPTICAL
OF POLITICIANS OR CELEBRITIES TELLING THEM WHAT TO DO, BUT WE
SHOULD LISTEN TO DOCTORS. THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE BEEN
ON THE FRONT LINES OF THIS THING, RISKING THEIR LIVES TO
SAVE OURS, AND THEY'RE FRUSTRATED AND WHO CAN BLAME
THEM. IF WE DON'T GET MORE PEOPLE VACCINATED, WE COULD SEE
NEW MUTATIONS OF THIS VIRUS AND GO THROUGH ALL OF THIS ALL OVER
AGAIN. AS A PUBLIC SERVICE, WE ASKED

I AM GRATEFUL FOR YOUR SANITY THROUGHOUT ALL OF THIS.
BUT ARE YOU ‐‐ I WOULD IMAGINE, AND OF COURSE, I'M PUTTING MY
OWN BRAIN IN THIS SITUATION. ARE YOU FRUSTRATED BY THE FACT
THAT AFTER ALL THE WORK YOU AND SO MANY PEOPLE DID TO GET THESE
VACCINES WORKING AND AVAILABLE, THAT ONE‐QUARTER OF THIS COUNTRY
WILL NOT GET IT?
>> YES, JIMMY, IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING.
NOT ONLY BECAUSE YOU CARE ABOUT EVERYONE IN THE COUNTRY, YOU
WANT ‐‐ YOU CARE ABOUT THE HEALTH AND THE SAFETY OF
INDIVIDUALS. BUT ALSO, YOU KNOW, THERE'S A
SOCIETAL RESPONSIBILITY THAT WE SHOULD ALL HAVE TO PUT AN END TO
THIS OUTBREAK. IF YOU HAVE A GROUP OF PEOPLE
WHO UNDERSTANDABLY MAY THINK THAT THEY'RE INVULNERABLE
BECAUSE THEY'RE YOUNG AND HEALTHY AND STATISTICALLY THE
CHANCES OF THEIR GETTING INTO TROUBLE WHEN THEY GET
VACCINATED, THEREFORE, IT DOESN'T MIC ANY DIFFERENCE IF
THEY GET INFECTED BECAUSE THEY LIKELY WILL DO WELL.
THAT'S REALLY NOT THE RIGHT ATTITUDE FOR THE FOLLOWING
REASON. ONE, YOU'RE NOT EXEMPT FROM A
SERIOUS OUTCOME, BECAUSE WE STILL SEE NOW A NUMBER OF YOUNG
PEOPLE GETTING SERIOUSLY ILL. ALSO, WHAT HAPPENS, IF YOU LET
YOURSELF GET INFECTED, IT ISN'T JUST YOU IN A VACUUM.
YOU MAY INNOCENTLY INFECT
SOMEONE WHO COULD REALLY GET IN TROUBLE, SOMEBODY'S GRANDFATHER
OR GRANDMOTHER, SOMEONE'S WIFE WHO'S ON CHEMOTHERAPY FOR BREAST
CANCER. YOU CAN'T THINK ABOUT YOURSELF
IN A VACUUM, YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT SOME OF YOUR SOCIETAL
RESPONSIBILITIES. THAT'S THE FRUSTRATING PART.
>> Jimmy: AT WHAT POINT DO WE GIVE UP ON THESE BONEHEADS AND
SEND THE SHOTS TO INDIA WHERE THEY REALLY NEED THEM AND WANT
THEM?
>> NO YOU DON'T WANT TO GIVE UP ON PEOPLE, YOU WANT TO GIVE THEM
THE OPPORTUNITY, FIRST OF ALL, TO MAKE IT VERY, VERY EASY FOR
THEM TO GET VACCINATED. YOU KNOW, THE PRESIDENT TODAY
MADE THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT WE'RE GOING TO PULL BACK FROM THE BIG
MASSIVE VACCINATION PROGRAMS AND REALLY HAVE A WALK‐IN TYPE
THING, WHERE YOU CAN WALK INTO ANY OF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF
PHARMACIES, GET VACCINATED WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT OR
ANYTHING LIKE THAT. THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE STILL
SHOULD NOT PAY ATTENTION, WHICH WE SHOULD, TO THE SUFFERING
THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE WORLD. BECAUSE I DO BELIEVE WE HAVE A
MORAL RESPONSIBILITY TO BE ABLE TO DO WHAT WE CAN TO GET THOSE
PEOPLE VACCINATED ALSO.
>> Jimmy: ABSOLUTELY. THIS IS A FIRST PANDEMIC WE'VE
HAD ‐‐
[ APPLAUSE ]
‐‐ IN THE ERA OF SOCIAL MEDIA. DO YOU FEEL LIKE IT HAS BEEN ‐‐
OBVIOUSLY THERE ARE GOOD THINGS WHERE YOU CAN GET THE
INFORMATION OUT MORE QUICKLY, PEOPLE CAN SIGN UP ONLINE AND
WHATNOT. ALSO, IT'S EASIER TO SPREAD
DISINFORMATION. DO YOU THINK SOCIAL MEDIA HAS
BEEN GOOD OR BAD IN THE CONTEXT OF GETTING PEOPLE VACCINATED?
>> I THINK IT'S TOTAL MIXED BLESSING, JIMMY.
I THINK IT'S BOTH GOOD AND BAD. GETTING INFORMATION OUT TO
PEOPLE, YOU CAN DO IT QUICKLY, YOU CAN DO IT IN BULK.
BUT ALSO, WHEN YOU GET DISINFORMATION, CONSPIRACY
THEORIES, OUT AND OUT FABRICATIONS, THAT GETS
FRUSTRATING. WHEN PEOPLE GO THROUGH SOCIAL
MEDIA, SOMETIMES THEY CAN'T DISTINGUISH THE COMPLETE
NONSENSE FROM THE THINGS THAT ARE REALLY IMPORTANT TO THEM,
THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
>> Jimmy: SPEAKING OF COMPLETE NONSENSE, WHEN IS THE LAST TIME
YOU TALKED TO DONALD TRUMP?
[ LAUGHTER ]

>> Jimmy: WHY DID HE CALL YOU? WAS HE LOOKING FOR MEDICAL
ADVICE? WHY WAS HE CALLING AT THAT TIME?
>> WELL, YOU KNOW, HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE FACT THAT HE
WAS IMPRESSED WITH THE FACT THAT HE GOT THE MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY,
AND HE FELT IT REALLY DID HIM SOME REAL GOOD.
HE WANTED TO JUST CALL ME UP AND TELL ME ABOUT THAT.
>> Jimmy: AND SO ‐‐ DID YOU GET THE SENSE THAT HE FELT LIKE WE
DIDN'T NEED TO KEEP WORKING ON THE VACCINE BECAUSE WE HAVE THE
SOLUTION RIGHT HERE?
>> NO, NO. I MEAN, TO GIVE CREDIT TO THE
FORMER ADMINISTRATION, THEY PUT TOGETHER "OPERATION WARP SPEED"
WHICH WAS REALLY IMPORTANT IN GETTING THINGS ROLLING.
RIGHT NOW WE'RE IN THE IMPLEMENTATION STAGE, WHICH IS
GOING REALLY, REALLY VERY SUCCESSFULLY IN VACCINES.
>> Jimmy: YES, IT DOES SEEM TO BE ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT SEEMED
LIKE THE VACCINES WERE AVAILABLE AND WHERE IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT
TO GET ONE. I MEAN, I WAS ONLINE TRYING TO
GET MY PARENTS AN APPOINTMENT, TO TRY TO GET MY AUNT AND UNCLE
APPOINTMENTS. IT WAS LIKE ‐‐ IT WAS LIKE
TRYING TO GET TICKETS TO VAN HALEN IN 1984.
[ LAUGHTER ]
IT WAS CRAZY.
>> THAT'S ‐‐ YEAH. SO THAT'S THE TRUTH.
WHEN THE DEMAND OUTSTRIPS THE SUPPLY, YOU GET THE EXPERIENCE
THAT YOUHAD, JIMMY. BUT WHEN YOU THEN HAVE THE
SUPPLY AND THE DEMAND EITHER BEING EQUAL OR EVEN MAYBE A
LITTLE BIT MORE ON THE PART OF SUPPLY, THAT'S WHEN YOU'VE
REALLY GOT TO GET OUT THERE AND PUT THE EXTRA SPECIAL EFFORT.
AS THE POOL OF PEOPLE THAT YOU WANT TO VACCINATE GETS LESS AND
LESS PROPORTIONALLY, THAT'S WHEN YOU'VE REALLY GOT TO PUT ON THE
AFTERBURNERS AND GET THE LAST GROUP OF PEOPLE VACCINATED.
>> Jimmy: WERE YOU SHOCKED TO LEARN THAT PEOPLE WERE ANGRY
WITH YOU AND ACTUALLY THREATENED YOU AND HAD ALL THESE HATEFUL
THINGS TO SAY ABOUT YOU? WAS THAT SOMETHING THAT YOU
NEVER THOUGHT YOU WOULD EXPERIENCE IN YOUR LIFE AS A
DOCTOR?
>> YEAH, JIMMY. I NEVER WOULD HAVE IMAGINED,
WHEN I WAS TRAINING IN MEDICINE, AND FOR THE MANY, MANY YEARS
THAT I WAS IN MEDICINE WITH THE FIELD OF HIV AND ALL THE OTHER
THINGS WE DID, THAT WE WOULD REACH A SITUATION WHERE THERE
WOULD BE SUCH EXTRAORDINARY DIVISIVENESS IN THE COUNTRY.
I MEAN, IF THERE'S ONE TIME OR ONE AREA WHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO
BE FIGHTING WITH EACH OTHER, IT'S WHEN YOU HAVE A COMMON
ENEMY THAT'S A VERY POWERFUL ENEMY THAT'S TRYING TO PUT BOTH
OF YOU OUT. AND THAT'S THE VIRUS.
I MEAN, IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.
AND I AS A PERSON WHO'S GIVING PUBLIC HEALTH ADVICE AND TRYING,
YOU KNOW ‐‐ I CONSIDER THE COUNTRY AS MY PATIENT,
METAPHORICALLY, WHERE YOU REALLY WANT TO TAKE CARE OF THEM.
IT'S SORT OF LIKE PART OF THAT GROUP WANTS NO PART OF YOU, AND
ACTUALLY ATTACKS YOU, WHICH IS ‐‐ YOU KNOW, I'M USED TO IT
NOW, JIMMY.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> BUT IT WAS A REAL JOLT AND A SHOCK EARLY ON, WHEN YOU GET
COMPLETELY CRITICIZED AND ATTACKED BECAUSE YOU'RE SAYING
THINGS THAT IS TRYING TO SAVE THE LIVES AND PRESERVE THE
HEALTH OF PEOPLE.
>> Jimmy: IT'S JUST ‐‐
>> IT'S KIND OF WEIRD.
>> Jimmy: IT'S MADDENING IS WHAT IT IS. HOW IS YOUR WIFE DOING?
AND WHAT IS IT ‐‐ WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO DOING WHEN
THIS IS ALL OVER AND WE CAN MOVE FREELY ABOUT THE COUNTRY?
>> WELL, MY WIFE IS REALLY THE ANCHOR OF ALL THIS.
SHE HAS BEEN INCREDIBLE. I DON'T THINK I COULD HAVE GONE
THROUGH ALL OF THIS EXTRAORDINARY SURREALISTIC YEAR
AND A HALF WITHOUT HER SUPPORT. SHE'S REALLY AN AMAZING PERSON.
THE THINGS THAT WE'RE REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO WHEN WE GET
THIS BEHIND US IS I HAVEN'T SEEN MY CHILDREN.
I HAVE THREE YOUNG ADULT DAUGHTERS.
THE YOUNGEST OF WHOM I HAVEN'T SEEN IN WELL OVER A YEAR.
AND THE MIDDLE AND ELDEST ONE I HAVEN'T SEEN IN ALMOST A YEAR.
>> Jimmy: WOW. WOW.
>> THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO DO, ALSO I WANT TO DO THE SIMPLE ED.
THINGS, GO TO A BALL GAME, WATCH THE WASHINGTON NATIONALS.
>> Jimmy: GOTCHA. AND MAYBE CLEAN UP YOUR OFFICE
TOO?
[ LAUGHTER ]
WHILE YOU'RE AT IT? ALL RIGHT, DR. FAUCI, WHEN WE
GOM BACK, WE'VE GOT SOME REGULAR PEOPLE ON THE STREET WHO HAVE
QUESTIONS, AND HOPEFULLY THESE WILL BE QUESTIONS THAT HELP A
LOT OF THE PEOPLE WHO ARE WONDERING.
MORE WITH DR. FAUCI AFTER THIS, WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
♪
>> Jimmy: HEY, WE'RE BACK. MUSIC FROM ANITTA IS ON THE WAY.
DR. ANTHONY FAUCI IS WITH US. YOU'VE PROBABLY BEEN ASKED
ENOUGH QUESTIONS FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE THE PAST YEAR, BUT WE
HAVE A FEW MORE, DR. FAUCI, IF YOU WOULD BE SO KIND.
WHICH VACCINE DID YOU GET? DO YOU SAY?
>> YEAH, I GOT THE MODERNA. THAT WAS THE ONE THAT WAS
AVAILABLE TO ME AT THE NIH. AS I'VE ALWAYS SAID, GET THE ONE
THAT'S AVAILABLE, GET IT AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN.
>> Jimmy: ALL RIGHT.
>> IT HAPPENED TO BE MODERNA WAS AVAILABLE AT NHI SO I GOT THAT.
>> Jimmy: THAT IS YOUR NOTIFY WHEN IT COMES TO DATING AS WELL?
[ LAUGHTER ]
LET'S GO ON THE STREET AND MEET SOME FOLKS WHO ARE PASSING BY.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
>> DARUS BOYD.
>> Jimmy: HI THERE, DARUS. DR. FAUCI IS ON THE LINE.
DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION?
>> YES, SIR. DR. FAUCI, WILL I NEED A THIRD
BOOSTER SHOT TO GO WITH MY PFIZER VACCINE?
>> IT IS CONCEIVABLE THAT YOU MIGHT.
WE DON'T KNOW FOR SURE RIGHT NOW.
BUT IF THE PROTECTION, THE LEVEL OF PROTECTION THAT YOU HAVE,
STARTS TO TAPER DOWN OVER A PERIOD OF TIME, WE'RE FOLLOWING
THAT IN A LARGE NUMBER OF PATIENTS.
SO IT IS CONCEIVABLE THAT YOU MIGHT.
SO I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED, AND YOU CAN EXPECT THAT THAT MIGHT
HAPPEN. AND IF IT DOES HAPPEN, YOU
SHOULD DEFINITELY TAKE IT IF IT GETS RECOMMENDED.
>> YES, SIR. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> Jimmy: THANK YOU, DARUS. WE'RE GOING TO BOIL THAT
MICROPHONE AND HAND IT OFF TO SOMEONE ELSE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WE'RE VERY SAFE AROUND HERE, DR. FAUCI. WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
>> DUANE STANDRIDGE.
>> Jimmy: GO AHEAD WITH DR. FAUCI.
>> WILL I EVER BE ABLE TO EAT AGAIN AT HOMETOWN BUFFET?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> THE ANSWER IS, ABSOLUTELY, YES.
WE WILL GRADUALLY GET BACK TO NORMAL, WE WILL.
>> Jimmy: DUANE, WHAT DO YOU LIKE AT HOMETOWN BUFFET?
>> BRUNCH, WAFFLES AND EGGS AND EVERYTHING.
>> Jimmy: HE'S A BREAKFAST MAN.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
>> Jimmy: ALL RIGHT. THANKS.
LET'S HEAR FROM SOMEBODY ELSE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
DR. FAUCI, HAVE YOU EATEN AT HOMETOWN BUFFET?
>> NO, UNFORTUNATELY NOT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: OKAY, ALL RIGHT. NEXT UP WE HAVE, HI, WHAT'S YOUR
NAME?
>> I'M MICHELLE.
>> Jimmy: HI, MICHELLE. DR. FAUCI IS WITH US, GO AHEAD.
>>FY GOT ONE SHOT OF MODERNA AND ONE OF PFIZER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN?
>> THEY'RE BOTH THE SAME TYPE OF VACCINES, BOTH MRNA VACCINES.
WE RECOMMEND YOU GET THE SAME TYPE.
BUT IF ONE IS NOT AVAILABLE, WE FEEL THAT THERE REALLY ISN'T A
MAJOR DIFFERENCE, AS LONG AS IT'S WITHIN THE SAME TYPE.
SO IF YOU STARTED OFF WITH ONE AND GOT THE OTHER, YOU SHOULD BE
IN GOOD SHAPE AND GET A GOOD RESPONSE.
>> Jimmy: OH, THAT'S GREAT. I HAD NO IDEA.
I FEEL LIKE I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS STUFF, AND IT TURNS
OUT I DON'T.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WELL, THAT'S INTERESTING. ALL RIGHT.
WHO ELSE IS OUT THERE ON THE BOULEVARD? WE HAVE?
>> HI.
>> Jimmy: WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
>> ROCKISH.
>> Jimmy: HI, THERE.
>> YEAH, I WAS WONDERING, IF MY DOG GETS COVID AND I KISS MY
DOG, CAN I GET COVID?
>> Jimmy: THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> YEAH, WELL, IT'S UNLIKELY THAT YOUR DOG IS GOING TO GET
COVID. IT'S UNLIKELY IF YOU KISS YOUR
DOG, YOU'RE GOING TO GET COVID FROM YOUR DOG.
SO YOU HAVE TWO REALLY UNLIKELY THINGS.
>> THAT'S GREAT NEWS.
>> Jimmy: ANIMALS DO GET COVID, RIGHT?
>> THEY DO. THEY DO, THEY ACTUALLY ‐‐ THAT'S
A GOOD POINT. ANIMALS DO. THERE HAVE BEEN ZOO ANIMALS, BIG
CATS AND OTHERS THAT HAVE GOTTEN COVID.
BUT THERE'S NO INCIDENCE AT ALL THAT'S DOCUMENTED OF COVID THAT
IS DIRECTLY TRANSMITTED FROM A DOMESTIC ANIMAL, A PET, TO A
PERSON.
>> Jimmy: VERY GOOD. ONE MORE QUESTION, I BELIEVE.
>> THE QUESTION IS, WHY? WHY ARE SCHOOLS DOING THIS?
AND IS IT A GOOD IDEA? FROM A MEDICAL STANDPOINT, IT'S
HARD TO UNDERSTAND THE REASONING BEHIND THIS.
AS A GROUP, YOUNG PEOPLE ARE NOT AT RISK OF DYING FROM COVID.
MAYBE MORE SIGNIFICANT, HUGE NUMBERS OF COLLEGE STUDENTS HAVE
ALREADY BEEN INFECTED WITH THE CORONAVIRUS. WE KNOW THAT.
AND THEREFORE, THEY HAVE NATURAL IMMUNITY TO IT.
WHY DO THESE KIDS NEED THE VACCINE?
NO ONE HAS EXPLAINED THAT.
>> Jimmy: DR. FAUCI, CAN YOU EXPLAIN TO THE GENTLEMAN WITH
THE BIG COLD SORE ON HIS LIP ‐‐
[ LAUGHTER ]
WHY THE KIDS NEED THE VACCINE?
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> YOU KNOW, JIMMY, WHAT I SAID A LITTLE BIT AGO, THAT ONE, YOU
WANT TO PROTECT YOURSELF. BUT ALSO, YOU DON'T WANT TO BE
PART OF THE PROPAGATION OF THE OUTBREAK.
BECAUSE IF YOU GET INFECTED, EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE YOUNG AND
HEALTHY, YOU COULD, AS I SAID, IT WOULD BE INADVERTENTLY AND
INNOCENTLY PASSING IT TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO COULD HAVE A SEVERE
OUTCOME. AND WHEN YOU GET INFECTED, YOU
ARE PROPAGATING THE OUTBREAK. YOU'RE NOT BEING A DEAD STOP,
YOU'RE ALLOWING THE VIRUS TO CONTINUE FROM YOU TO SOMEONE
ELSE. SO EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T GET ANY
SYMPTOMS BECAUSE YOU'RE GENERALLY A YOUNG, HEALTHY
PERSON, YOU DON'T WANT TO BE PART OF THE CONTINUATION OF THE
OUTBREAK. YOU WANT TO BE A ROADBLOCK TO
THE OUTBREAK. AND THAT'S WHY YOU WANT TO GET
IT.
>> Jimmy: WE HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER TO STOP THIS THING.
THANK YOU FOR LEADING US DR. FAUCI, WE GREATLY APPRECIATE IT.
DON'T LISTEN TO THOSE MANIACS, EVERYBODY LOVES YOU.
