Fauci says he wasn't aware White House coronavirus briefings were returning
NBC, Jul 21, 2020

President Donald Trump's announcement on Monday that he will resume regular coronavirus briefings at the White House was apparently news to America’s top infectious disease expert.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, appeared to be caught off guard by the briefings' return during an interview with Maria Shriver on Instagram Live Monday.

Asked if he would be participating in the briefings, Fauci said, "I would assume I am."

"I mean, I have not gotten official word of when the next one was," he said. "I was down at the White House just this afternoon. If they start the briefings, I would imagine I'm going to be part of it, at least some of them."

"Well, I don't know if there's even going to be a briefing (on Tuesday)," he said. "I don't know that."

Fauci spoke to Shriver one day after Trump characterized him as "a little bit of an alarmist" during an interview with "Fox News Sunday."

This news put a big smile on my face.

Fauxi is too busy with his many media appearances and cover shoots to be in the loop.

Doesn't he need to be at some Mag for a cover photo shoot?
