Co-founder and CEO of the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame Phil Sklar told the Daily Caller that one of the reasons they chose Dr. Fauci for their bobblehead was “he’s one of the few persons the people trust.”
Sklar said that so far people from all fifty states as well as over a dozen countries purchased the bobblehead.
When asked if they plan to make more coronavirus related bobbleheads Sklar said, “there are some governors out there who’ve done a great job,” as well as “other members of the task force.”
Sklar hopes to keep sending donations to the 100 million mask challenge and the American Hospital Association during the pandemic.
