Dr. Fauci said "we are not in a good place"
"We are not in a good place for some reasons," said Fuci.

We arrived at about 20,000 cases a day. We then try to reopen The economy. We got up. As you remember Florida, Georgia, Texas, South California and Arizona. We went up to 70,000 cases a day. Then gradually clogged down. He stayed stuck around 40,000 a day until the last time when we walked around up to 50, 60, 70, and we even reached 83,000 cases last weekend.
