Poll: More than 60 percent of voters say they trust Fauci, don't trust Trump on coronavirus
Source: The Hill
Over 60 percent of voters in a new poll say they trust Anthony Fauci but not President Trump when it comes to information on the coronavirus as Fauci and administration officials increasingly butt heads over the seriousness of the pandemic.
According to a survey from Quinnipiac University Poll released Wednesday, 67 percent of registered voters surveyed do not trust information Trump provides on the coronavirus, while 30 percent do. Meanwhile, 65 percent say they trust Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, while 26 percent distrust the information he provides.
The poll comes as some members of the administration distance themselves from Fauci, who has offered a more cautious approach to reopening the country than many in the White House prefer.
"He may be out of the loop and in disfavor with the White House, but it's clear from the numbers, voters would like Dr. Fauci back on call," said Quinnipiac University polling analyst Tim Malloy.

“I stand by everything I said," Fauci added. "Contextually, at the time I said it, it was absolutely true.”
