    Dr. Anthony Fauci rips Trump ad, says his comments were taken out of context – By Associated Press (Oregon Live) / Oct 11 2020

    Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday he was taken completely out of context — and without his permission — in a campaign ad for President Trump lauding the U.S. response to the pandemic.

    “I can’t imagine that … anybody could be doing more,” Fauci is shown saying in the 30-second ad, with the ellipses inserted in a caption to the video, just at the point where there appears to be a split-second break.

    According to CNN, Fauci’s quote came out of a Fox News interview conducted in March in which he praised the efforts of the White House coronavirus task force. At the time, he spoke about the unprecedented nature of the coronavirus threat and the “all hands on deck” nature of the response.

    “Since the beginning, that we even recognized what this was, I have been devoting almost full time on this,” Fauci said, according to CNN. “I’m down at the White House virtually every day with the task force. It’s every single day. So, I can’t imagine that under any circumstances that anybody could be doing more.”
