President Joe Biden is going to need a team to lead the COVID-19 response to the country.

Dr. Fauci has been correct about this pandemic. He warned about this exact second wave. He stated it could be very bad including overwhelming hospitals and staff. All that said, Dr. Fauci is not trusted by a segment of the political right-wing. A Libertarian stated to me only a week ago, this incident clearly states Dr. Fauci is untrustworthy. He said, "He didn't trust the American people enough for them to understand how masks were important for healthcare workers."

Dr. Fauci will need a team member "that speaks Republican and Libertarian" to garner a unified approach to ending the pandemic. They demonized Hillary Clinton all her career. They will do it here, too.

There is nothing wrong with the interview, but, there is plenty wrong with the politics. End of hate.

Dr. Anthony Fauci (click here) says he doesn't regret joining other Trump administration public health experts in advising Americans against buying masks early on in the COVID-19 pandemic.

In an interview with CBS Evening News anchor and 60 Minutes correspondent Norah O'Donnell published in InStyle magazine, Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, defended his credibility amid a steady stream of attacks on his expertise and trustworthiness from the White House.

In late February and early March as the COVID-19 outbreak began accelerating in the US, hospitals and health facilities experienced severe shortages of personal protective equipment for healthcare workers. In response, experts like Fauci and the US Surgeon General Jerome Adams advised Americans against wearing masks.

"I don't regret anything I said then because in the context of the time in which I said it, it was correct. We were told in our task force meetings that we have a serious problem with the lack of PPEs and masks for the health providers who are putting themselves in harm's way every day to take care of sick people," Fauci told O'Donnell.
