The first expert in the country on infectious diseases, Dr. Anthony Fauci, warned yesterday that coronavirus mutated in something that can be even more infectious.

"We do not have a connection if a person worse with that or not; it just seems that the virus is better and can be more communicable."

The possibility of a more infectious coronavirus comes when America is gathering a picture in cases. On July 2 alone, the country recorded a record of 55,595 cases - a change of 90% of 14 days in the wrong direction. The United States has 2.7 million cases confirmed, more than anywhere else in the world.

"Now, all you have to do is take a look at the news at night and you see people who gather in bars without masks, gathering in different types of groups that go well beyond the Recommended number of people, "he said. "What happens when you do that and you do not wear a mask? You get the kind of epidemic we see."

He mentioned, as he has previously, young people are responsible for some of the widespread. Addressing younger Americans, he said, "If you are infected, it is likely that you infect someone else who infect someone else, who could then infect a vulnerable person.
