Fauci sidelined by White House

“抗疫队长”被白宫边缘化

Despite his leading role in the US fight against COVID-19, top infectious diseases expert Anthony Fauci has been sidelined by the White House, the Washington Post reported on Sunday.

据《华盛顿邮报》7月12日报道,尽管顶级传染病专家安东尼·福奇在美国抗击新冠肺炎的战斗中发挥主导作用,但白宫却在将他边缘化。

Citing a senior White House official who spoke on the condition of anonymity, the Post reported that Fauci "no longer briefs US President Trump and is never in the Oval (Office) anymore."

《华盛顿邮报》援引一位未具名白宫高级官员的话称,福奇已“不再向美国总统特朗普做简报,也不再在椭圆形办公室工作了。”

According to the report, Fauci had not spoken to Trump since "the first week of June."

据报道,福奇自“6月第一周”以来就没再与特朗普交谈过。

In a live stream event on July 7, Fauci warned against a "false narrative" of a falling COVID-19-related death rate even as Trump continued to tout alleged progress the US had made in tackling the COVID-19 outbreak by citing a falling US mortality rate.

在7月7日的一场直播活动中,福奇警告人们,新冠肺炎相关死亡率下降是一种“错误说法”,而特朗普继续以美国死亡率下降为由吹嘘政府在应对疫情方面取得的所谓进展。

In another interview with the Hill on Thursday, Fauci said that US states hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic should not be moving forward with reopening, another public rebuke of Trump, who had repeatedly downplayed the worsening COVID-19 outbreak in the country and encouraged states to quickly reopen their economies.

7月9日,福奇在接受《国会山报》采访时表示,受新冠疫情重创的美国各州不应推进重新开放进程,再一次“打脸”特朗普,后者一再淡化该国日益恶化的新冠肺炎疫情,并鼓励各州迅速重启经济。
