Fauci: 'We're in a very difficult situation at all levels' but 'help is on the way'
By Zack Budryk - 11/22/20 11:23 AM EST

Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious diseases expert, warned that the U.S. was in a “very, very difficult situation at all levels” with regard to the coronavirus pandemic, but said “we should not look upon this as a hopeless situation.”

“We’re in a very, very difficult situation at all levels,” Fauci said on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” citing increasing infections throughout most of the country. He added that in terms of public health measures to stem the spread, “we’re  not talking about shutting down the country and locking down completely but we do know mitigation measures work” such as wearing masks, social distancing and frequent hand-washing.

Fauci, pointing to the development of two separate vaccine candidates, urged Americans not to lose hope even as they continued to take precautions.

“You don’t want people to get terrified but you want them to understand that we can do something about that by mitigation methods and also help is on the way, so we should not look upon this as a hopeless situation,” he said.

Faucci has been leading this effort. Faucci admits Trump followed his every recommendation.

When does Faucci admit mistakes?

Fraud. After nine months of gloomy predictions suddenly Fauci is now finding reasons for optimism.

Fauci is a Dem troll.
Trump should have canned his butt day one.
If he had, America would be a much different, a much better, place today.
As many have said before me, Fauci is determined to keep the COVID panic going on 'forever'.
It is his only claim to fame. It is his only claim to power.
Would Fauci even be on 'Face the Nation' but for COVID? Of course not.
And he knows this very well.
Like all the companies supplying cancer drugs, the last thing Fauci wants is for COVID to be cured.
If COVID goes away, so does he.

I doubt he's really the nation's "top ... expert."

He's certainly the media's favorite, which should tell you something.

Oh, I'm not so sure. After all, NIAID funded the research that created the virus, both in North Carolina and in China at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Fauci has been head of NIAID for decades.
