Dr. Anthony Fauci helped coordinate the nation’s response to the COVID pandemic. He has never been charged with a crime, yet received a “full and unconditional” pardon back to Jan. 1, 2014.

Donald Trump Jr. criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci for accepting a pardon from President Biden. "He doesn’t have to accept the pardon. If he did nothing wrong be a man and turn it down… But you know he won’t because everyone knows he’s guilty of so much,

President Biden said the pardons are not an "acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing" but rather protect individuals from "unjustified and politically motivated prosectutions."
