Fauci pleads the Fifth to COVID questions by US Sen. Rand Paul at intense hearing

Dr. Anthony Fauci invoked his Fifth Amendment rights during a Senate hearing led by Rand Paul, refusing to answer questions over concerns of potential criminal charges. Fauci cited Paul's 'obsession' with prosecuting him and releasing his personal diary as reasons for his refusal. Paul accused Fauci of misleading statements and said the committee would consider holding him in contempt.
