Moments after Donald Trump approached the lectern to open the daily taskforce briefing on the coronavirus pandemic, mild panic broke among viewers online.
Where was Dr Anthony Fauci, the 79-year-old infectious disease expert who has become a regular fixture and a calming presence alongside the president?

“Youre admitting to watching CBS This Morning?
HAHA, I once said to my daughter: now dear, you know I don’t watch those morning news shows because they are part of the Communist plot to destroy America.
And, no, I wasn’t joking. They are, and the rest of the MSM too.
Having spent 40+ years working in pretty large companies, I’ve gotten pretty good at sniffing out political spin.
Fauci rings my alarm bells big-time in that regard. He’s Director of the NIAID (or whatever the acronym is). You don’t get to that level by NOT being uber-political.
That said, I don’t think he’s over-stating the real risk the country is facing. And I suspect he’s probably been pushing internally for Trump to KEEP everything shut down, and Trump is telling him no - I’m going to open things back up.
Uber-political or not, in this case, I’d agree with Fauci and not Trump.
I do think it’s VERY telling that he’s been absent the past couple of days while Trump goes on his “of COURSE we’re going to open things back up soon, very soon!” tour.
garbage BS from an uber-leftist anti-Trump piece of garbage propaganda rag ... Trump himself said today that not every one of his team has the time to stand on the podium with him every time ...
btw, the most hilarious response of the fake stream enemedia regarding Dr. Fauci’s absence was when that fool Joe Scarborough whined that there were no longer any doctors on the podium with President Trump because Joe was too stupid to know that Dr. Barbara Brix IS A DOCTOR! Probably due to his inherent misogyny, i’m guessing ...
“He may have been called on the rug about his butt kissing letters to Hillary.”
Sadly, Dr. Birx, who has basically stepped in to Fauci’s role on the team, is/was has financial ties to Marie Yovnovitch, the Ukraine Ambassador, who tried to take down Trump during impeachment. Birx transferred millions in funds to M.Y. during impeachment.
None of them has the best interest of America as a priority. Birx is, however, a better team player assuming she’s not trying to sabotage POTUS.
“What has he done to help our country prepare for this pandemic?”
It seems that almost everything he’s actually been involved in has been an epic fail. He’s an expert at hypothesizing, bloviating, and politicking.
“I think hes a vaccine type of guy”
I think he’s a major player in the vaccine worship cult. (There’s money to be made, dontcha know.)
Deborah Birx is a doctor. The Surgeon General is a doctor, and he’s always on stage. Ben Carson is there often — DOCTOR Carson.
I don’t think the media understands anything about physicians. One harpy on The View said DOCTOR Jill Biden should be Surgeon General, when her doctorate is some cheesy degree in elementary education. RATs are idiots.
This is simple the guy has completed his job
His very important job was during the first week of this and explaining over and over and over again why we all need to stay home for two weeks
he gave us the two pillars argument about 500 times on which he was completely correct
Were now on the downhills side of the second week day 9/15 of presidential directive ). and now hes unnecessary -
were going to open up everything next week and this whole thing will be over. - except for hotspots like NYC
Liberals are not America
The Guardian with more fake news.
They are still upset we kick their Brits butts in two wars and saved their whiney butts in two wars in the last century!
In the next weeks,whenever you see someone you know or just met, ask them:
Who is Tony Fauci?
That will tell you how many Americans had mild panic among viewers and online re Fauci being missing!
“Has he retired?”
You have lost it! He was with Trump during the daily briefing!
“Glad he is not center stage anymore...”
LOL! He is with Trump during the daily briefing.
Trump made one short joke too many...
[proper response?] "He's busy. He's got a job. You should try it sometime."
He is sitting in the corner.
Do they think this, plus an AP article that stated "pandemic rages" just might be contributing to hysteria?
He was there today during the white house news conference directly behind the President and he spoke.
I’m looking at the live telecast, Fauci and Trump are standing right next to each other. Fake news.
Hes standing right next to the President at todays presser.
