Dr. Anthony Fauci
He is a physician. He is an
immunologist. And since
January 2020, he’s been the
lead in the Trump
Administration’s
Coronavirus Task Force.
Despite public criticisms
from the president, Fauci
remains the country’s “go-
to” for COVID-19
information and healthcare
recommendations.
Fauci’s public service
record extends as far back as
the Reagan Administration
and his contributions to
HIV/AIDS research for the
National Institutes of
Health and the National
Institute of Allergy and
Infectious Diseases, where
he’s been the director since
1984.
His studies furthered an
understanding of how HIV
breaks down the body,
making it prone to fatal
infections. He also played a
key role in designing
treatments that help people
with HIV live long and
active lives.
Fauci is a member of the
National Academy of
Sciences, the National
Academy of Medicine, the
American Academy of Arts
and Sciences, and the
American Philosophical
Society.
