Infection, hospitalization and death statistics are "superb"
The current figures are "beautiful", depending on Fauci, but the most troubling aspect is that people do not gradually seem to them. "One of the questions for being really seized by this for 11 months for almost a year is that the numbers are so extraordinary that we have become numb."

The health system is submerged

I have Very precisely used the very difficult situation in California, especially in the county county, where there are beds and they have an exhausted staff working nearly 24 hours a day, "he said. "It's really an extraordinary situation."
Things will get worse
Although the current situation is disadvantaged, Fauci waits for the coming weeks will be even more devastating.

You may remember that the sequence of the virus was put on a public database in January The ninth and in less than a year, in 11 months, we went from a sequence to have vaccines in the weapons of individuals, vaccines that are not just any vaccine, but a 94 vaccine 95% effective with a very good security record. "
However, the majority of the vaccinated population will be delicate. "The challenge is now to obtain the vaccine and implement effectively so that we can get the overwhelming majority of our vaccinated population in a period of several months, which will be the true gateway to the end of this Terrible epidemic and would get we back to normal, "he said."
