Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has emerged as a lone voice of reason during President Trump’s daily covid-19 press briefings. He’s the one person Americans have been able to rely on to separate fact from administration-ordained fiction, and that’s precisely why his days might be numbered.
as the Trump is fond of, and that he isn’t afraid to call the United States’s current response an abject failure.Q: Big Picture. We’ve had all this pandemic preparedness. Why did this fail? What went wrong?
A: I think we’ll have to wait until it is over and we look back before we can answer that. It’s almost like the fog of war. After the war is over, you then look back and say, wow, this plan, as great as it was, didn’t quite work once they started throwing hand grenades at us. It really is similar to that. Obviously, testing [for the new coronavirus] is one clear issue that needs to be relooked at. Why were we not able to mobilize on a broader scale? But I don’t think we can do that right now.
But Fauci was cagey in his response to how he manages to stand by as Trump lies. When asked why there are more than 10 people on the stage during Trump pressers and more than 10 journalists in the audience, Fauci replied, “I know that. I’m trying my best. I cannot do the impossible.
, “I can’t jump in front of the microphone and push him down. OK, he said it. Let’s try and get it corrected for the next time.”Fauci joked that he hasn’t been fired yet, and made a point to mention that though he and Trump disagree, the president does listen to him. Still, in the Trump administration,, as evidenced by the constant
dismissals from the Trump administration. And lost in the malaise of covid-19 and the democratic primary was the news of the Trump administration’s most recentFauci as having become a “major television star” with his numerous news program appearances. But as much as Trump values one’s ability to shine in front of the cameras, he only celebrates it to a point.
