Tavia Galonski's remarks came after the president's coronavirus press briefing on Sunday, in which he stopped Dr. Fauci from answering a question about hydroxychloroquine.
, the president said the government was"sending them to various labs, our military, we're sending them to hospitals.""I juts think it is something, you know the expression, I've used it for certain reasons...What do you have to lose?"When a journalist later attempted to ask Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, for his take on the drug's potential, Trump appeared to block the doctor from answering.
President Donald Trump and Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, hold a press briefing with members of the White House Coronavirus Task Force on April 5, 2020 in Washington, D.C. The president prevented Fauci from answering a question on hydroxychloroquine.
When discussion around the use of chloroquines in the fight against COVID-19 arose, Fauci reportedly maintained that there was a need for further rigorous testing on the anti-malarial drug. Rep. Tavia Galonski tweeted in response to Trump's remarks,"I can't take it anymore. I've been to The Hague. I'm making a referral for crimes against humanity tomorrow."
