Anthony Fauci was one of the nation\\u2019s leading public-health doctors, working on the world\\u2019s deadliest emerging infectious diseases, from AIDS to Zika. Then came COVID-19. He soon became a voice millions of Americans trusted -- a straight-talker even when his candor put him at odds with President Trump. But it also made him the target of conspiracy theories and worse. In an exclusive interview about Fauci\'s new memoir, \\u201cOn Call: A Doctor\\u2019s Journey in Public Service,\\u201d USA TODAY Washington Bureau Chief Susan Page sits down with Fauci to talk about his years in public health and whether he will ever again feel safe.
