During an interview with host Chuck Todd of NBC’s ‘Meet the Press’ Dr. Fauci director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases did his best to spread fear and panic warning that something dramatic has to be done right away to once again bend the curve of covid infections across the country.
“Chuck, I’d have to say, honestly, unless something changes dramatically, which I don’t see that happening because the curves when you look at the dynamics of an outbreak that you see usually three, four, five-week period of time before curves start really coming down,” Fauci said.
Fauci then got down to his favorite subject, imposing restrictions on ordinary Americans.
“So I think we’re going to be faced with another situation we’re going to have to make decisions as a nation, state, city and family that we’re in a very difficult time and we’re going to have to do the kinds of restrictions of things we would like to have done particularly in this holiday season because we’re entering into what’s really a precarious situation because we’re in the middle of a steep slope.”

Fauci as is usual did his best to scare as many people as possible.
What’s interesting is Florida is not on lockdown, no mask restrictions yet that state is not doing any worse than state’s imposing tight restrictions.
What do you think? Are you prepared for another extended national lockdown?
Read the entire transcript, it’s important to understand how these people think:
TODD: “Look, it took, what was it? About a week before Thanksgiving that the CD.C. came out and advised against travel. Are we going to see more dire warnings given about travel now, essentially now in the next week or two as we prepare for the end of the year holidays and new years?”
FAUCI: “Chuck, I’d have to say, honestly, unless something changes dramatically, which I don’t see that happening because the curves when you look at the dynamics of an outbreak that you see usually three, four, five-week period of time before curves start really coming down.
So I think we’re going to be faced with another situation we’re going to have to make decisions as a nation, state, city and family that we’re in a very difficult time and we’re going to have to do the kinds of restrictions of things we would like to have done particularly in this holiday season because we’re entering into what’s really a precarious situation because we’re in the middle of a steep slope.
What people need to do, we say it over and over again. We know it works but also that there is, as I mentioned to you before, chuck, there is light at the end of the tunnel because we’ll really be seeing vaccines soon.
We likely, almost certainly, are going to be vaccinating a portion of the individuals in the first priority before the end of December and then as we get into January and February and March, more and more.
So if we can hang together as a country and do these kinds of things to blunt these surges until we get a substantial proportion of the population vaccinated, we can get through this. There really is light at the end of the tunnel —”
