Dr. Anthony Fauci said he 'gave everything' to keep the public safe during a difficult time, and he insisted he always supported keeping schools open during the pandemic.
Dr. Anthony Fauci insisted he has "nothing to hide" and Republicans lawmakers who have threatened an investigate didn’t play a role in his decision to step down.
"It was the most important thing is to protect the children … and the way you do that, you get the people who interact with the children to be vaccinated and masks, you provide ventilation in the schools, you try to keep them in the schools safely," he continued."The most important thing is to protect the children."
At the same time, Fauci said Sunday that the Trump administration"should be very proud" of Operation Warp Speed, which saw health services receive unprecedented levels of funding in order to develop the COVID-19 vaccines. "I was at the White House, yeah," Fauci explained."I didn't want to go up on the air with this because I had a bad feeling about when Homeland Security brought this guy in, [and] he briefed the people in the Situation Room beforehand."
