Kelly Ripa throws her support behind coronavirus task force leader Dr. Anthony Fauci by stepping out in a sweater bearing immunologist's name By David Lawrance and Christine Rendon For Dailymail.com

Earlier this month she had her own brush with COVID-19, when her Live With Kelly And Ryan co-host Ryan Seacrest had to be tested for the virus.
Following Ryan's thankfully negative result, Kelly Ripa gave a nod to one of the faces of the U.S. Government's coronavirus taskforce when she stepped out in New York City in a statement garment on Thursday.
The TV personality, 50, donned a white sweater bearing the name 'FAUCI,' an apparent reference to the famed immunologist Dr. Anthony Fauci, who has become something of a folk hero in the midst of America's coronavirus pandemic.

Months before travel was hobbled by coronavirus fears, I was returning home one evening from Raleigh-Durham International Airport when I noticed a familiar figure at the gate — slight, bespectacled, hair side-parted and gray. Anthony S. Fauci and I have spoken now and then over the years, and we began to chat. When it was time to board, it turned out our seats were adjacent. So, I was treated to vivid war stories about the arc of his medical and scientific work in infectious diseases, and about his interactions with a succession of presidents during the AIDS crisis.
New York Times – 10/29/2020 – Thomas Kaplan:
Mr. Biden has also signaled that Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the government’s top infectious disease expert, will have a prominent role in a Biden administration. The Biden campaign has said Dr. Fauci, the longtime head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, “will have full access to the Oval Office and an uncensored platform to speak directly to the American people — whether delivering good news or bad.” — Thomas Kaplan and Abby Goodnough

Hi Dr. Fauci,
Josh Dawsey from the Washington Post again. Hope you are well.
My colleague Yasmeen Abutaleb and I are working on a story about what the pandemic is likely to look like this fall/winter -- and what the administration should be doing about it. Wonder if you could answer a few questions.
1. Have you briefed the president on the spike in cases in recent weeks, and have you prescribed any course of action that you think is best to contain the virus? If so, what is the action?
2. What are you projecting as far as cases and deaths this fall?
3. In what ways is the country better prepared to handle this wave of cases? In what ways is the country worse prepared to handle this wave of cases? I'd love to get as granular as possible here.
4. Why does the coronavirus task force meet less frequently than it once did? Do you have access to high-level decision makers at the White House as you once did?
5. What did you think of Mark Meadows comment that we can't control the virus? Was that good public health messaging? What about the president's comments that covid is overblown and that coverage of covid -- and the dangers of the disease itself -- will recede after Election Day?
6. Have you warned the White House or the campaign, besides your public comments, about the dangers of these large rallies?
7. Have you spoken to anyone on the Biden transition team about controlling the pandemic, should he win?
8. Do you believe the president is getting good health advice from Dr. Scott Atlas? We are told you have repeatedly disagreed with Atlas. Is that true? If so, why?
9. We are told that you wanted to appear on television in upcoming weeks to warn the country about the disease this winter, but were scuttled from doing some appearances. Is that true? If so, do you know why?
If you have a second, I'm also happy to talk by phone. Just figured you might be busy. I'm at 843-267-6747.

Trump threatens to fire Fauci ‘after the
election’
By Lev Facher @levfacher
Jimmy Kimmel: [On Trump casually alluding that he is thinking of firing Dr. Fauci] “Firing Dr. Fauci, that’s a smart move. He’s the only good person in the whole Administration. But go ahead and fire him, because a group of people who sell nightcrawlers out of their vans started a chant.”
