Dr Anthony Fauci insisted on Tuesday he had not been misleading the American public under any circumstances countering a claim by Donald Trump that he had.
The director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases has become a trusted public voice on the coronavirus pandemic.
He was speaking the morning after Sinclair, an influential broadcaster with links to the US president, dropped an interview on a widely syndicated TV show in which the researcher behind the Plandemic conspiracy theory claimed Fauci made the coronavirus and sent it to Wuhan, China.
Also on Monday night, Trump retweeted a series of controversial claims about the pandemic, including a claim on a podcast hosted by the former White House counselor Steve Bannon that Fauci misled the American public on many issues.
Asked about the tweets on ABC News Good Morning America, Fauci said: I dont tweet, I dont even read them. I dont really want to go there. I just will continue to do my job, no matter what comes out, because I think its very important.

the Orange Marvel. He's going to end up killing us all (because of his jealousy) before we can get him out of the Oval.
Poor Dr. Fauci. You've got to give him credit for staying with us.

What he's doing, which is he's spreading disinformation, and propaganda . He also claimed he likes Dr. Fauci, and that means he hates him , and is jealous of him. He hates people trust him ,and when speaks , he speaks the truth , something trump hates because it undermines his propaganda.
