“It’s a good rule when you are walking into the West Wing of the White House to advise the president, vice president, or the White House staff to remind yourself that this might be the last time you will walk through that door. If you base your advice on the truth and on scientific evidence and do not sugarcoat anything, it is likely that sooner or later you will be telling the president or the vice president something they really don't want to hear, something that may point out a problem with how their administration is handling an issue. Sometimes when advisers do that, their opinion is no longer sought. It's a version of shooting the messenger. Some people might fall into the trap of never wanting to disappoint a powerful figure, and so they slant their advice toward pleasing rather than informing. Don't fall into that trap.' I hope I would have arrived at the wisdom Jim imparted on my own, but he was explicit about it, and continued, 'If you're consistent and totally honest, you might risk being being dropped as an adviser, but this approach with the right kind of president or vice president can also engender respect and a durable relationship.”
― Anthony Fauci, On Call: A Doctor's Journey in Public Service
