Dr. Anthony Fauci's tenure in public health is marked with major triumphs, but also controversy, especially as he was thrust into the middle of the political debate swirling around COVID-19.
He's worked for more than half a century at the National Institutes of Health, served under seven different administrations, and even earned a Presidential Medal of Freedom - even though Fauci has ascended to what many would consider being the peak of public health careers, he says his humble beginnings are really what shaped him, even to this day.
KNXV asked him if there was anything he would have done differently looking back when it comes to his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. "Had we known it was aerosol spread and that a lot of the transmission was from asymptomatic people and there was asymptomatic spread going on then, of course, we would have recommended masking up sooner," he said.
Fauci was asked what it was like to be the subject of so much anger and hostility throughout the pandemic.
