Dr. Fauci receives security detail, as the infectious-disease expert has become polarizing in a politically divided country

Dr. Anthony Fauci, a member of the White House coronavirus task force who has faced threats, has been given a security detail, according to an official familiar with the matter.

A request for nine special agents was approved by the Justice Department following a recommendation from the U.S. Marshals Service, the official said. Some Trump-administration officials had become concerned about Dr. Fauci’s safety, according to a person familiar with the decision.

God bless you Dr Fauci. Keep doing everything the way you do it. And don't let those creepers stand in your way.

In Dr. Fauci we trust protect him at all cost!

Polarizing? I didn’t know spitting facts was polarizing? Some people are really just stupid.

Thanks to the polarizing media fake news media!

Economic Impact of Covid-19

Good grief. 'Killing the messenger.' As illogical as voting for 45, in the first place.

And what have the left said about Brix?..fake ass news

You can just say this is due to conspiracy theorists.

Only deranged Leftists could make this a partisan issue.

Trump populism and suspicion of “elites” by his base normalized rejecting scientists and experts

what's a stupidly vague and, frankly, misleading title.

He's a Doctor not a politician like I said Country is getting dumber and dumber, fact is should of shut down International Travel much, much early lets learn from this for the next time

The liar and cry wolf is scared now.

Sad.

Neither Dr. Fauci nor Dr. Birx is polarizing. The two leaders are saving our Nation from the pervasive danger. Words matter. WSJ should not be misguiding the readers with reporting biases and inciting the hateful few. Please write extolling articles on the two saviors.

This is the man who led his team into areas hit by Ebola in order to save lives and try to stop the spread of the disease. If it’s possible to be a hero in science - he is one. He should be honoured - not threatened

Between a rock and a hard place. Trump routinely stabs WH staff in the back if they don't agree with him. Threats from public are just sick and ignorant an example of Trump supporters.

How is it possible that we have come to a place where a global pandemic is partisan? I’ve never understood it with the environment and now this. Must be science.

Protect him, he’s the only one with a brain in DC.

Love Dr. Fauci!!!

Bless his heart. He’s doing a good job! The problem is twofold: 1. Non medical professionals can’t understand the problem and how viruses work/how bodies respond. 2. We should not be divided, I cannot believe political differences are even a thing right now. Praying for everyone

'Deep State'? People are sick. They are dying. In fact, we have lost nearly as many to COVID-19 as on 9-11 & Pearl Harbor combined (5,399)! That's not politics. THAT'S FACTS! Fauci didn't create this mess. The ignorance of many who elected Trump were the contributors!

Those (esp. in UK/Aus./India/Canada/US) who thought Zhang suggesting to peers to produce counterfeit thermometers to Americans was a joke, more news for you: contaminated test kits which Eurofins responsibly warned UK about are sourced from China. COVID19

Virus found in COVID-19 patients' germ cells - sexual transmission possible; would affirm studies on testis damage and lower male gonadal function – Healthnews21, from an exclusive by Sci and Tech Express News (part of Shanghai United Media Group) COVID19

America is a very strange place.

For no sane reason these common sense deprived bipeds have not advanced from the tree climbing, organ grinding primate companion that can only insult, throw discharged waste from the digestive system, they respond, act, and mimic in lock step with a mob mentality & vote by color

RepAdamSchiff should have the same.

Trump's fault.

How sad that there are people out there that want to hurt a man that just wants to save humanity!

Trumpists are so virulently anti-reality that they now pose a legitimate threat to a man who spends all day, every day trying to save their lives, simply because he knows what he's talking about. If this were a tv show, it would be rejected for being too over the top.

Facts = polarizing

The most dangerous virus!!!

America is the real sick man of the world now😢

So very sad. He should be treasured, not threatened.

“Politically divided” Or just DUMB

Turned Black Hat...Corrupt

He has been good with the facts and the fence riding as to help us while not angering Trump. But if he decides to speak to the press in a way that puts Trump in a bad light, we will be needing the security to protect him from vengeful and enthusiastic MAGA fanatics.

Show some courage. Dr. Fauci has not become polarizing, he is now given the same treatment as his boss receives from the vicious, anti-American, Trump hating American Left. No moral equivalence here. Anyone covering modern politics knows where the primary threats reside in the US

Your headline feeds the divide. Telling the truth and providing information based on the best data he knows. Psychotic violent radicals threaten medical advisor. Some of them are probably fall under FBI’s definition of domestic terrorists.

Dr. Fauci's been doing this job for a very long time and never needed security detail until now. 🤔 CoronavirusPandemic

Wear a mask no matter you’re sick or not. Asymptomatic infected cases are not rare, you even don’t know it after you infect others or are infected.

Polarizing here means factual

I don't understand why. Is it because so many still see this as a hoax? (PS I can't get past the paywall).

Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx are heroes. I hope that we commission two new hospital ships and name them after these two wonderful people.

Fuc*ing red hat MAGA’s are a virus and the only legal cure is to vote blue

He has touched a raw nerve... and telling the truth!

lol, great going, let's take out our leading infectious-disease expert at a time of global pandemic

China wants him infected or dead i’m sure

Thanks FoxNews

Fauci2020

特朗普同学不喜欢他,想找个理由屏蔽他。

realDonaldTrump are you gonna allow your base to go after Dr. Fauci?

I feel for this man

I don’t blame you. They tried to make him God. He would have to choose who lives and who dies. Medical malpractice at its finest. Neglect

I hope more than anything that he's staying on the side that Birx is not.

Coronavirus task force presents a bleak landscape with 100K deaths as best-case scenarioThe White House today announced a best-case prediction of 100,000 to 240,000 coronavirus deaths in the U.S. 'This is the thing that we need to anticipate, but that doesn’t mean that’s what we are going to accept. We want to do much, much better than that” No spread, no dead COVIDー19 Don’t care what the WH says. Do a deep dive on the smartest models *and their assumptions*. What do the epidemiologists predict and why? Then bring in what the WH says and juxtapose it please. That’d be compelling, How can it be ‘best case’, but also we hope to ‘do much better’?

Pence task force freezes coronavirus aid amid backlashThe Trump administration is freezing aid to countries requesting help combatting coronavirus. The move comes after the U.S. asked Thailand for help last week only to be told that a U.S. shipment of the same supplies was already on its way to Bangkok Trump aides immediately put the shipment on hold while they ordered a review of U.S. aid procedures. They worried crossed wires would confuse allies. And Americans confronting a surging death toll and shortages of medical supplies would likely be outraged We’ve been lied to by CHINA.

Coronavirus Task Force Details 'Sobering' Data Behind Its Extended GuidelinesAmericans must brace for 100,000 or more people to die in the coming months amid the coronavirus pandemic, the White House response team warned. 'dye' not 'die' is proper in this context. This is some CCP propaganda if I've ever seen it. Disgrace. Defund these hacks. Unacceptable! This will go down in history as the biggest failure of any American president. This number is 33x larger than the Americans lost because of 9/11. Utterly disgraceful! And any who try to defend his incompetence will go down with him Mitchplease

White House task force actively discussing whether public should be wearing masks, Fauci saysDr. Anthony Fauci, a key member of the White House's coronavirus task force, says the idea of recommending broad use of masks in the US to prevent the spread of coronavirus is under 'very active discussion' by the group. Youtube - Dr. David Price, Critical Care Pulmologist, works entirely with Covid patients. He recommends masks for public, but not medical masks. He said it's a way to train the public to keep their hands away from their face. We subconsciously touch our face=xfer of the virus. Please help us.. share it Government Egyptian kill us Egypt🙄👎 andersoncooper What don't u understand about the lack of masks & equipment? Our health system is profit-driven That means they pretty much order what they need w/maybe a small amount of back-up Only way they would be prepared is by our Fed gov mandating we keep stock 4 emergenc

Pence says coronavirus task force will make recommendation on wearing masks 'at the appropriate time'Vice President Mike Pence says the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is looking at the issue of masks 'as a protective measure' for all Americans Good luck with finding a place to buy them. You can't find ONE place online that has any in stock. Dumb idea. Mr. VP sorry to say that your useless president didn't put into place STAY AT HOME, WASH YOUR HANDS, AND Social distancing, it was started by the different states, California being one of the first state to implement this. OH PLEASE. This is such bullshit. It’s like the media is trying to see how many Americans will blindly do as they are told. At what point do Americans say ENOUGH. So first masks aren’t needed. Fabric masks don’t help. Now they absolutely do help. Got it. No.
