PICTURED: Dr. Fauci, 79, and his wife flanked by body guards while out walking after he receives death threats
Daily Mail
Dr. Anthony Fauci has to be accompanied on walks by federal agents after receiving death threats in response to his handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
The country's top infectious disease expert lives in Washington D.C. and was seen accompanied by the security detail in an episode of 60 Minutes, where it was revealed he must resort to power walking with them due to the harassment his family has received.
Fauci's wife Dr. Christine Grady told the show that it frustrates her husband how 'the same message has to sort of be reiterated over and over again because either people don't hear it, or they don't believe it, or they don't adopt it,' and now their children are having to deal with the repercussions.
'That's sad. The very fact that a public health message to save lives triggers such venom and animosity to me that it results in real and credible threats to my life and my safety,' Dr. Fauci, 79, told interviewer Dr. Jon LaPook on the CBS show.
'But it bothers me less than the hassling of my wife and my children.'
The couple have three adult daughters; Jennifer, 34, Megan, 31, and Alison, 28.
Dr. Fauci explained that the death threats have been for 'mostly me' but Dr. Grady added that there has been 'harassment against all of us.'
Confirming that his other relatives have been threatened, Dr. Fauci responded: 'Yes. I mean, like, give me a break.'
A point of contention with the American public has been mask-wearing.
At the start of the pandemic when medical professionals were running short on PPE, experts said the general public need not routinely wear masks.
However, once researchers discovered that coronavirus was contagious even from the asymptomatic, face coverings were increasingly encouraged.
President Trump has questioned Fauci's credibility while former Vice President Joe Biden has defended the advice being altered as experts learned new information.
'So let's see if we could put this to rest once and for all,' Fauci added on 60 Minutes.
'It became clear that cloth coverings, things like this here, and not necessarily a surgical mask or an N95, cloth coverings, work.
'So now there's no longer a shortage of masks. Number two, meta-analysis studies show that, contrary to what we thought, masks really do work in preventing infection.'
During a live stream with CNN this August he said the pandemic 'brings out the best of people and the worst of people'.
'I wouldn't have imagined in my wildest dreams that people who object to things that are pure public health principles are so set against it and don't like what you and I say, namely in the world of science, that they actually threaten you,' he told Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
'Getting death threats for me and my family and harassing my daughters to the point where I have to get security, it's amazing.'

『所以現在已經不缺口罩了。第二，薈萃分析（meta-analysis）研究表明，與我們想像的相反，口罩在預防感染方面確實有效。』
A meta-analysis is a statistical analysis that combines the results of multiple scientific studies. Meta-analysis can be performed when there are multiple scientific studies addressing the same question, with each individual study reporting measurements that are expected to have some degree of error.（Wikipedia）
薈萃分析，又稱「Meta分析」，Meta意指較晚出現的更為綜合的事物，而且通常用於命名一個新的相關的並對原始學科進行評論的學問，不但包括數據結合，而且包括結果的流行病學探索和評價，以原始研究的發現取代個體作為分析實體。薈萃分析產生的主要的理由是：對於多個單獨進行的研究而言，許多觀察組樣本過小，難以產生任何明確意見。（百度百科）
During a live stream with CNN this August he said the pandemic 'brings out the best of people and the worst of people'.
在今年8月與美國有線電視新聞網的直播中，他說這次疫情『表現出了最好的人和最壞的人』。

『我做夢都不會想到，那些反對純屬公共衛生原則的東西的人是如此的反對，不喜歡你我說的話，即在科學的世界裡，他們實際上是在威脅你，』他告訴古普塔（Sanjay Gupta）博士。
'Getting death threats for me and my family and harassing my daughters to the point where I have to get security, it's amazing.'
『讓我和我的家人受到死亡威脅，騷擾我的女兒，以至於我不得不找安保，這太驚人了。』
