WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci said he will take Pfizer Inc (NYSE:PFE)'s new coronavirus vaccine if the Food and Drug Administration approves it and that he has confidence in the company and the government agency.

Asked on MSNBC if he would take the vaccine, Fauci said: "I'm going to look at the data, but I trust Pfizer. I trust the FDA. These are colleagues of mine for decades, the career scientists. If they look at this data, and they say this data is solid, let's go ahead and approve it, I promise you, I will take the vaccine, and I will recommend that my family take the vaccine."

A few weeks to get green light from Food and Drug Administration
Let him take it.. He has been ORDERED to make that statement.. i will not take it.
Ordered by who? Trump’s no longer his boss and even if he wanted to make him, he couldnt force him. This isnt communist Russia, no matter how hard Trump tried to make it be during his impotent presidency.Fauci bases his decisions on science and a half a century of experience, the way sane, rationale people do.
Trump has clearly never been his 'boss'. Google "Fauci doctor admirer" to see where his allegiance has been. This has been known for a long time.
