Donald Trump's ex-COVID-19 adviser, Deborah Birx, is sharing more about her experience advising the Trump administration on COVID-19 as she promotes her new book.
After graduating from Pennsylvania State College of Medicine in Hershey, she took her first government job in 1985 at the Department of Defense as a military-trained clinician in immunology. She later attained the rank of colonel and became one the U.S. military’s leaders in the global fight against HIV/AIDS, among other viruses.
“[I] said: this has to be reversed,” Birx said. “And by the next morning the president was saying this [what he had said] was a joke.” During her time on the coronavirus task force, Birx had praised Trump’s “attentive to the scientific literature and the details,” averring that “his long history in business has really been a real benefit during these discussions about medical issues.”
