"If you look at statistics, young people, clearly when they are infected, they are less likely to give a serious result, but there are a lot of examples of young people, mainly millennia, but even children, less children, but young people, that when they are infected, they get a serious result. Even if it's a minority of them. The question I have that it is important is that for so many people , 20 to 40% that have been infected, has no symptoms at all, young people. And these are particularly young. People are old enough to go to a bar. They feel if they are infected that, In fact, there is no consequence. They say, "It's unlikely that I'm going to get sick. So I'm just going to worry about myself. What they do not fail to achieve - and It's probably an innocent failure to realize, making no complaints is that when they are infected or not Do nothing to prevent me from being infected, they inadvertently propagate the pandemic. They are part of this phenomenon of a pandemic. It is very likely that they will infect someone who will then infect someone who will then be a vulnerable person who will greatly suffer from being infected ... .so you want to use the social responsibility of young people to help us Get out of this difficult situation with this global pandemic. "

"I hope no. I mean, it is certainly conceivable that it will happen. I believe that the types of things we do will mitigate against that. I do not want to see that obviously, but you know, remember that We pushed back to a high level unacceptably. We went up and down to 20,000 cases a day. And we were just stuck there for weeks and weeks until we finally resurgently resurgence In the southern states where we went up to 30, 40, 50, 60 in the last recently, 70. If you look at the other countries of the world, especially the European Union, they are mounted at the top and they are Revenue to a real baseline basis where they had dozens and hundreds of cases a day, dozens of thousands of cases a day. So we have to really do better than that. And that's what I can not wait to do better than impatiently this curve. "

"It's a very important question. I can say that we do a lot, much better now today, like you and I speak we have no month ago months with tests. And we will do Better as we advance, more tests become available, but in particular when there are overvoltages and a great demand for tests, we do not do it as well as we could do, because you know, you can theoretically say That we have a lot of tests, but when you get on the phone and when you get on the phone and call people in the trenches, they say that in certain circumstances you have to wait five, six, seven days to get the result of the test. And this prevents the actual underlying reason from passing the tests. Because if you do not know that the result, the result is 24 hours later than the contact tracing becomes unimportant, because what is good in contact t with the contact. If the person has exposed people over the next five to seven days, so we have to correct that. We must correct that. We must correct that. We must correct that. More resources. They must receive people on the ground. "

"The extent to which I am involved with a president really depends on circumstances that exceed my control and control of the president. It depends on what's going on ... now with Covid-19 obviously, as you know, earlier , especially when we were dealing with the coronavirus working group - I often meet the vice-president. Like almost every day, if I'm not physically there, I speak to him. And early, we had a lot of interaction with President Trump, you know, especially during the time, we will give frequent press conferences. It's a little less then now, but not completely interrupted ... I'm my best to stay completely outside of politics. But when you are in a situation that is politically charged, it is a bit difficult not to be impacted completely. I stay out of any personal involvement in politics, but I try to do my job, but I am aware of the tension. The only thing that is interesting. That I think people do not appreciate, it is because I have a very good relationship with the president in the sense of any animosity at all. In fact, it's a good relationship. "

"I discussed it with it. It is very conscientious about the safety of children that it is responsible for safety as well as its own security. But my feeling is that if you look at the broad umbrella, the default position should be that we should try as best as possible for children to return to school. This should be the failure because of the downstream negative ripple effect, negative consequences to keep them in a refuge for their own good psychological. It's a data. But that said we had a focus on the safety and health of children and teachers. And they will be regions of the country where there is no problem of Everything, because the level of infection is so weak that there is very little risk bringing children back to school, but in areas that are hot areas where a lot of infection is going, you'd better look at what we can do to save the Health and the well-being of children flowing D Being, you know, modifying how you do it - a hybrid, an online part, a party at school, separating the classes of days, morning, afternoon, Physical separation, port mask. There are many things you can do as long as you make sure you are very sensitive to the safety and well-being of children. "

"You know, it's a good question. In some ways, although it seems strange given the difficulty we spend at the moment, we were only little prepared as a matter of fact. When you remember when we would remember when we will remember pandemic preparation plans during the George W. Bush and Obama Administration, we pay considerable attention to the way we react to an emerging infection. In Done, the institution of Johns Hopkins, when she tried all the countries in the way they were prepared for a pandemic epidemic, they voted that the United States was better prepared than anyone, even in this context, when You have something so extraordinary that this epidemic that happened now is the historic, it is the worst thing we have lived since 1918, that any type of preparation, you know, when you are there. think, that does not Era probably not totally adequate. "

"We hope we better improve it. I hope this experience, as bad as that, and the fact that it was not finished, we will make you realize that there will be next time. So we have to use lessons learned now to be even better prepared than we were this time because we were reasonably well prepared. We were just overcome by the extent of this and how it exploded us on us in a period of nothing at the end from December to the end of December. A global pandemic, just a few months later, it's really unprecedented. "

"When people ask me, over the decades, what is your worst fear? What is your worst nightmare? You know, and I always say systematically, it would be a virus that would jump from species of an animal tank that we have never seen before. It would be a respiratory virus, and that would have two major characteristics. It would be very very efficient. And two, it would have a substantial degree of morbidity and mortality - over the years we have seen versions of one or another of these two characteristics, but never, at least not in our life. And for example, remember when the bird flu has threatened us, we jumped from a chicken to a human. The mortality of it was substantial from 30 to 40%, but it was very inefficient to go from man to man. Today, with Covid-19: it's the worst nightmare because that we have a virus that is spectacularly effective to go from man to man. And he has a degree of significant morbidity. Mortality, especially in a subset of those who have underlying conditions. As soon as I saw this possibility, I said, Well, we'd better receive a vaccine and we'd better start quickly. And we literally started a few days after the VI, the virus was identified by the Chinese. "
