Anthony Fauci

"I believe, for the most part, you can trust respected medical authorities. "I believe I'm one of them, so I think you can trust me."

"So I have all the respect in the world for Dr. Fauci. I think any effort to undermine him is not going to be productive, quite frankly."

Trump retweeted to his 83 million followers the accusations of a former game show host that "everyone is lying," including the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

"I get along with him very well. I like him, personally."

"He looks at it from a very narrow public health point of view."

DeSantis insists there was no reason not to reopen.

"That may be one of the reasons why I haven’t been on television very much lately."

He is turning his focus to Fauci.

"We are all in this together."

Trump disagrees with Fauci's stance.

"We're very much going to put pressure on governors and everybody else to open up the schools."

"I don't see it on a national level merely because of all situations you have upon encroaching upon a person's freedom to make their own choice of their own health."

Fauci is stressing that reopening schools will not be a "one-size-fits-all" situation.

Fauci expressed concerns about the apparent lacking level of seriousness in regard to the coronavirus.

"It's a serious situation that we have to address immediately."

"The curve is still going up."

The infectious disease expert claims the United States' partial shutdown is the biggest part of the problem.

"I’ll have the nation’s top medical experts and scientists ready to advise our response on day one — and I'll actually listen to them."

"It is very important to get the children back to school for the unintended negative consequences that occur when we keep them out of school."

Sanders is asking why the federal government has not issued guidelines on flight capacity.
