Months of frustration with Donald Trump’s denial of the coronavirus crisis in the United States
boiled over last week when the Democratic House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, publicly attacked a
top member of Trump’s coronavirus team, Dr Deborah Birx, for standing by the US president
despite his record of lies and misinformation about the virus.

Her position contrasts sharply with Dr Anthony Fauci, her former supervisor and current
scientific peer on the White House coronavirus taskforce, who has clashed more frequently

working parents. HOWEVER, the primary consideration must be the health,
safety and welfare of the children and the teachers, and the potential spreading to
others (i.e. family members). I have stated that one size does not fit all and
decisions should be based on the level of infection in the community:

PRESS: Front page article in Washington Post blasts Meadows and Trump
for ignoring me and Birx and carefully monitoring everything that I say in
order to keep us on message and when we do not, they do not approve
requests for interviews. Glad that the sources were many and so they do not
think that I leaked.
