Dr. Faisci warns this "nightmare scenario" can arrive
"You do not want people to become complacent. We still have a long way to go. "
"The mutants are here." These shivering words, from a science fiction film, were actually spoken byDr. Anthony Fauci, the Chief Medical Councilor of the President and the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. He was talking about thecoronavirusVariants - At least seven total - which are more communicable and murderous. One from the United Kingdom, another from South Africa; Some were born here in the United States. Fauci appeared onAxiosOn HBO last night to discuss the threat they pose. Read on and to ensure your health and health of others, do not miss theseWithout signs that you have already had coronavirus.
Mr. Fauci stated that the "nightmare scenario" is that we must be wallops by the variants
Fauci was asked about the challenges to come. Despite the cases of falling coronaviruses and distributed vaccines, we run against these mutants. "January and December were the two worst months we had all year round," said Dr. Faisci, looking back. "And the number of cases was between 300 and 400,000 a day. The number of deaths was between 3 and 4,000 a day. It is beautiful to have this amount of suffering and death with an illness. C ' is historic frankly, worse than all we 'in 102 years old. But we will also be challenged by the appearance of variants or mutants that have emerged, some of which have a functional influence on how we want to answer. Fortunately, others are well covered by the vaccine, but not all. "
"Does the nightmare scenario, basically, the variants surpass the vaccine, that people have stopped taking Covid seriously because they see that the numbers come down and that they come with a variant that is not also easy to manage, "Margaret Toulev, Axios journalist.
"It's a possibility. You do not want people to become complacent. We still have a long way to go. And even if things go in the right direction, we could always have a stumbling stone come with the appearance of variants that will dominate the photo. "
How to stay safe during this pandemic
Fauci said the best way to prevent these mutants from spreading is to monitor public health mitigation and vaccinate. To this end, Trelev asked him how people can act after getting their two vaccines. "A guideline came out of the CDC just yesterday that if a person is vaccinated, then for the next three months, if they come into contact with a person who is documented to be infected, they do not have to enter quarantine as We used to have to do it, "answered Fauci." What about two entirely vaccinated people? What kind of activity can they have? Do he still need to wear masks against each other? Can they embrace? Can I have my daughter down from Boston, who I did not see a very long period? May I sit and have a dinner with her without worrying about the spread of infection? Can I kiss him a big hug as I would like? I think the answer will probably be yes, but I think we will wait to see what the recommendations show. "
Until then, follow the fundamentals of Fauci and help put an end to this thrust, no matter where you live-wear afacial mask, the social distance, avoiding big crowds, do not go inside with people you do not go with (especially in the bars), practice good hygiene of the hand, vaccinate yourself when it is Available for you and protect your life and life of your life. others, do not visit any of these35 places you are most likely to catch Covid.
