White House coronavirus advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said the United States is seeing a surge in new Covid-19 infections because the country never shut down entirely.
Early in the outbreak, U.S. coronavirus cases peaked at around 30,000 new cases a day before falling and plateauing at roughly 20,000 new cases per day, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. As some states began to reopen in late April through June, new cases began to surge, Fauci told Stanford Medicine Dean Dr. Lloyd Minor during an interview.
"We did not shut down entirely," Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said. "We need to draw back a few yards and say, 'OK, we can't stay shut down forever.' ...You've got to shut down but then you've got to gradually open."
The U.S. has reported more than 3.3 million Covid-19 cases and at least 135,205 deaths as of Monday, Johns Hopkins data shows. As of Sunday, cases are growing by 5% or more in 37 states and also Washington, D.C., according to CNBC's analysis of the data. The seven-day average of U.S. cases is more than 59,100.

So how does he explain Sweden?
if he means 10s of thousand huddled together tearing apart cities and burning things and robbing and looting and killing and raping...then he’s right
but we know that’s not what he’s talking about
For cryin’ outloud. 600+ people die in car accidents every day because we didn’t ban driving motor vehicles.
Wont blame the prostests and illegals...
The whole thing is selective shut down
Obvious the Bill Gates globalists are furious the locals could do business while their holdings out in China are being blocked
So they will do all they can to keep Walmart open and churches closed.
These goobalist satans are furious and want vengeance on America, they want the feds to nationalize and give it all to big corrupt chicom illegals BLM antiAmerican corps
I think the Rats are seeding new cases. . . . The increase in cases makes no sense to me. People are being careful where I am
Because raging Anarchists couldnt possibly spread it..or those crossing the border.
and still doing so.
The virus would have been cured had everyone rioted or gone to Walmart the entire time.
The shutdowns have been squandered. A complete waste of enormous sacrifice.
Had they been used to ID and COMPLETELY isolate the infected from society they could have been of great value and we’d be mostly clear of this disease by now.
Instead it’s all been wasted.
“You’ve got to shut down but then you’ve got to gradually open”
Uh, that’s what we did.
And nobody thought there would be no more cases after that. The shutdown was supposed to unload the hospitals, ‘member Tony?
So it did. And the current numbers are orders of magnitude below what you and Debbie DoRight were predicting 2 1/2 months ago.
We’re not going into stasis until this blows over.
Ah, STFU Tony.
:D
Its because the Rat run cities Allowed rioting/looting in their cities, but shut down the churches. Now the numbers have reversed. The Young people from 18-30 years old have the highest infection rate, and us old farts, the lowest.
orange man bad
“he increase in cases makes no sense to me”
I think it’s interesting that a couple weeks after every new heavy-handed dictate about wearing masks is given, the number of WuFlu cases rises.
More masks = more cases...?
I wish somebody would put a sock in this guy’s mouth. Tired of all the BS. IF we can live, and die with influenza, then we can live, and die with China Virus, which isn’t as bad as the influenza, and we don’t shut down our whole World, our whole Society for.
Metro NYC should have been isolated from the rest of nation in early March.
Would have been easy to with the few crossing points of the Delaware River.
Now NY wants to quarantine people entering from 2/3 of the states.
Talk about chutzpah!
I think the recent trend of mask anarchy is scaring the masters.
Time to ramp up and clamp down...again.
How dead does the Dr. think we need to kill the economy?
People are not being careful where I am.
