Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country's top medical expert on the pandemic and a member of President Trump's coronavirus task force, is facing threats to his personal safety and now requires personal security from law enforcement at all times, a source says

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country's top medical expert on the coronavirus pandemic and a member of President Donald Trump's coronavirus task force, is facing threats to his personal safety and now requires personal security from law enforcement at all times, including at his home, a source confirms to CNN.

A law enforcement official told CNN that the Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General, the agency's law enforcement arm, asked the US Marshals Service for assistance following threats to Fauci. The Marshals then deputized HHS officers to act as personal security for the doctor. The Washington Post first reported the threats to Fauci and the increased security.

But why

Wow, when you’re that triggered by facts *smh*. In the wake of everything that’s going on, the LAST thing we need is the death of a Dr/healthcare worker...due to ignorance

Probably came from realDonaldTrump for contradicting him.

Cults gonna cult.

Security for Dr. Fauci is a GOOD use of our tax dollars. Far better than all the wasted money that has been spent to date for someone’s weekend trips to Mar a Lago.

What a dreadful country.

Umm WTF?

CreatrixAnima Whenever realDonaldTrump has a press conference I mute the tv and only unmute when Dr.Fauci speaks.

Por lo menos tenemos un doctor valiente doblemente valiente al tener que someterse a la exigencia de don presidente Donald Trump que lejos de hacerle caso realmente lo debe dejar hablar sólo al señor doctor tenemos mucho que aprender de este doctor 👍🏻👍🏻

Simply crazy He’s the voice Americans should be listening too NOT Trump. Guard him well, apparent you’ve had a 41% surge on people wanting to buy guns? Why why why?

So telling the truth is bad?

We are behind him, keep up the good work

Dendycain because of trump's psycho followers

The doctors are the adults in the room giving us the truth, facts and total transparency! Good bless them because they keep calm and have to correct all the stupid things 45 says on a daily basis!!

Oh Hell No!!!😡😡😡😡

At the same time as gun sales have skyrocketed, being an essential service of course.

why smh

Ridiculous! Dr. Fauci you are very much appreciated! Thank you!

I used to think that being as powerful of a country as the US meant that people were all smart or somehow educated. That used to be a dream.

The Cult of Trump

Must be the Single Synapse gang feeling personally affronted by the truth.

Dotard probably is the man. He’s jealous because The Doctor knows 10000x more then he’ll ever know.

Protect this awesome man!! He is the only one I trust!!

Hope they catch those demorats

I predicted this event 6 years ago with my company cuhealthy Because I was nod an md or PhD it fell on deafears This will not be the last event of this proportion DrFauci needs to sit on my board. We could savetheworld education and Awareness

Ah wonderful. Just what we needed....

👀😳🤦🏾‍♀️ SMDH ... leave the man alone dobetteramerica

HANDS OFF AMERICA’s DOCTOR! He’s all we have to give us the facts and hard truths. I will go to the mattresses for him!😡

Pls Take care of DR Fauci,he is just special scientist for all the worlds

Probably from death cult evangelicals looking for the rapture

Fighting virus with ideologies... that reminds me how europe fought the Black Pest on the middle ages... maybe need to burn witches or sacrifice kids to the gods.

It's sad that the guy who is trying to help the entire country through a pandemic needs security because he hurt the president's feelings.

realDonaldTrump good ol’ boys at it again.

What if he is killed.

Dem shill... Never said anything about the H1N1 swine flu under obama.

This is what happens when the government is not upfront or also refuses to except what is going on. See what is happening around you. We need to be kinder take care of each other not hurt each other. Do you think by threatening him he’s going to say something different?

The problem is one: He is supporting to much lies, is not free to tell the truth.

The state of America. Embarrassing.

Wow. They think he's controlling corona? He correctly said the virus is in control.God help us. covid19

Trump turds pissed their cult leader is actually trying to follow science after months of denial

I'm confuse, he's trying to save lives and lunatics are trying to take his. WTF is wrong w/people. Hope trump's fan club are not this far gone and dumb.

Sad but seems about right as a segment of the population has been actively upset and railing against truth for a while now. Everyone- stay safe, stay away, let the experts do their jobs without harassment, oh and wash your damn hands. j_cyriously

So, this is the reason why Coronavirus is spreading in US than anywhere else.

Seriously? If you ever need a commentary about how stupid some Americans are this is it. Fauci is literally trying to save everyone’s life and he’s getting death threats? But not the jackass president or the idiot Republicans telling you coronavirus is not a risk? WTF? Idiots

America is such a bankrupt country

The entire article doesn’t mention who threatened him and why (Not a single line in the article explains this) - except for some 3rd party links. I seriously wonder who writes these articles 🙄🙄

“You don't make the timeline, the virus makes the timeline,'

Assuming this is somehow directly related to Trump?

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is pushing for a new stimulus bill that would roll back the state and local tax deduction (SALT), a proposal that would predominately help wealthy individuals -- including most residents in Pelosi's district and perhaps even Pelosi herself.

So according to the article , some shitheads are unhappy because Fauci said locking down the country is the way to fight the virus ? Asswipes can’t handle science and facts ?

So proud of the American people. The president who ignored the virus for weeks is surging in the polls. The Doctor who wants to keep us alive with the truth has death threats? Aesthetic and embarrassing those of you harassing this man are disgraceful human beings!

Who is threatening this man?make yourself know so we can erase your SS…

Unnamed source in this article as well.... I don't believe a single word CNN (or any MSM outlet for that matter) speaks or prints when their primary source of information is unknown. I smell bullshit.

He is a Trump stooge!

target Trump

MAG is a pipe dream, then in a hundred years you could add an A

FightForFreedomStandWithHongKong antichinazi support hk,plz don’t buy anything made in China

Why would anyone threaten this man? Ernst Rohm and his Brown shirts who have infiltrated every aspect of American life over the past few years, no doubt. Absolutely disgusting!

Looney Bonney right wing

This just shows once again what a sick society America is. The confirmation of my view is reading your gun/ammo outlets are considered ‘essential businesses’. How can that be I hope Dr Fauci is very well protected. We need him.

FAKE NEWS, CNN SUCKS!!!!👌👌

Russia has reported approx 2,300 cases so far Latest updates | Countries with confirmed cases per million population of COVID 👇 CoronaAlert COVIDー19

What a shame! This man deserves a medal for all he has done for our Country!

Never turn your back on a liberal in a stressful situation.

Only in America 🤢

realDonaldTrump should step in and publicly defend the only person who makes sense during his press conferences! DrFauci

Damn trumpers.

Unfortunately we all know the willful, selective ignorance and intentional bigotry of the Republicans that he has selectively become associated with. He seemingly tries to shine light through that dismal swamp.

and they wanted to release the info of the whistleblower...

MAGA .... will do anything to fight science and medicine

Russia please can we have an accident ?

IAmSophiaNelson Trump’s virus advisor needs protection from wacked out Trumpers.... For telling the truth.

Well seems like on brand for America.... 🤦‍♀️

Because of tolerant ideologues infatuated with equality, no doubt.

Why ..hes done nothing wrong.. Trump lied & ignored this problem..we need Drs

Is the china/WHO criminel gang out to get him?

America is really crazy

Why would anyone want to harm him?

Trump and Hannity calling it a Hoax left behind a sea of mouth breathers who don’t have the ability to believe in something they can’t see yet (see- global warming)

Threats from who? realDonaldTrump ?🤔🥃🧨🔥🏛🐘💩🧻💯🇺🇸

Really? Why?!?!!!

USA is a joke

From trumpers who think he’s making their deity look bad?

MAGA people are doing this.

😢🥺

Industry hit men! Enemy within horror

I’ve supported trump and I don’t hate the dr so can we stop painting with a broad brush for once? It’s amazing how humans are so stupid. Hope the best for the dr. Again, it’s amazing how stupid humans are. Reports on nurses catching hell in my home state for wearing scrubs. Wow

No doubt seen as a heretic in some parts.

如果有人想伤害福奇博士,我想,这个人一定是疯了。

For shame, shame🤢😡. God bless and protect Dr. Fauci.

Wow and now the leftists are blaming Tump for this does the delusion ever end. Unreal the left and the media will sink to what ever level they can to blame Trump for this when CHINA LIED ABOUT THIS

DrFauci has been leading the fight against hiv AIDS for decades with not much improvement but a TON of money. Billions to fight hiv/aids and it’s still worldwide..... DrBirx too. Hmmmmmmm PEPFAR

Whoever feels the need to make such a threat, if this report is any or at all accurate, must be sick and demented. The whole world NEEDS Dr Anthony Fuaci. USMarshalsHQ SecretService he (and his family) MUST be protected. TalkTheTruth

For Christ sakes this is purgatory

Welcome to Trump’s America

Who and Why!!!! Follow The advice of Samuel L Jackson and stay the F home.

That's crazy.

Right wingers don’t appreciate the truth. Protect this man.

Because of idiots like your network are always pushing a different narrative. It's not a myth, it's a fact.

Y’all bugging my guy is a national hero!! Put this guy on Mount Rushmore

Leave him the F alone !

And now the US is silencing the whistleblowers. I guess the explanation would be for public safety concerns? Wait are we talking about China or what

WTF!

What!!! Are people crazy!!! Don't answer that question.😭

Great,, from who?

The rich is trying to get the poor to slave for them while sit in their high mansions

This country is circling the drain

Idiots!! This man is telling the truth and doing his job!! What do you want him to do, lie? Trump does that already.

You own this CNN, this is the mentality you and other MSM have nurtured for likes and ratings.

Dr Fauci knows many facts about the virus, and as a scientist he knows how to handle it, he has access to get other countries' experience, however, those measurements are not gonna be taken in the United States, because the Lockdown policy will hugely affecte the economy.

Now we have to watch over TWO people - RBG and Dr. Faucci.

JoeABCNews Crazy !!

It takes up to 4 weeks to develop a vaccine . Wow hard can’t this virus be. Simple samples would tell you all you need. 🤷🏻‍♂️

😲😲

Democrats

Thats crazy to threaten this man. He is our National Hero. These people should receive a public flogging by Covid Patients.
