Fauci
on the “Morning Joe” show on Tuesday said that while he was concerned about the variants and about the possibility of a surge, he said that the national vaccination effort should be enough to keep any spike from becoming a full-blown outbreak.
As for the possibility of a fourth wave, Fauci said, “I don’t think it’s gonna happen.”
Which only makes sense: The millions of vaccines administered, added to the number of people who’ve recovered from COVID and now have anti-bodies, should be enough to provide at least some protection to the general population.
That’s science. That’s why even strict lockdown states like New York are opening the shutters again and getting back to business.
But on Wednesday,
Fauci backtracked, telling CNN that the number of COVID cases was “disturbing” and that there was “a risk of getting a surge back up.”
Which one is it, doctor?
