What would we do without Dr. Fauci? Santa is probably the only patient this guy has treated in 40 years!

Kids want to know: Is it safe for Santa to stop by this year?

“Will Santa still be able to visit me in coronavirus’s season?” asked 6-year-old Paxton from Geneva, Ill., during a CNN-Sesame Street town hall Saturday. “What if he can’t go to anyone’s house, or near his reindeer?”

Luckily for children everywhere, the nation’s top infectious disease specialist is on the case. “I took care of that for you, because I was worried that you’d all be upset,” Dr. Anthony Fauci responded. “So what I did a little while ago: I took a trip up there to the North Pole, I went there and I vaccinated Santa Claus myself.

“I measured his level of immunity, and he is good to go,” Fauci added. “He can come down the chimney, he can leave the presents, he can leave, and you have nothing to worry about.”
