Dr. Anthony Fauci has become an important face in the White House coronavirus task team, but the respected immunologist said on Tuesday that the lengthy press briefings he attends almost daily are “really draining.”
As AP News reports, Fauci commented on Monday’s press conference, which ran nearly two-and-a-half-hours, saying that while he acknowledges that his role in addressing the public is vital, the lengthy briefings can be a challenge.
“If I had been able to just make a few comments and then go to work, that would have really been much better,” he said. “It isn’t the idea of being there and answering questions, which I really think is important for the American public. It’s the amount of time.”
Monday’s press conference included a video compiled by the White House to correct what President Donald Trump called the media’s spreading of misinformation about his response to the virus.
