White House coronavirus expert Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Friday morning that the current state of crisis in the US would last for two months and that 'it's all on the table' in terms of how much more severe things may become.

In a series of interviews with Good Morning America and CBS This Morning, Fauci gave his bleak assessment of what is still to come.

'It's certainly going to get worse before it gets better...there's no doubt we have not peaked yet,' he said.

Asked directly if America was heading towards a complete shutdown like China and Italy, he would not rule it out.

'I'm not sure we're going to get to that.

'I think that would be really rather dramatic, but I can tell you that all things are on the table.

Misleading headline in that in the same sentence he says he doesn’t think we’ll do that.

...

The misleading headline guarantees somebody will post it on FR for the panic effect.

Oh... so ACE inhibitors increase ACE2 expression on the cell membrane? I didn’t realize that was the mechanism of action... I thought it was more that there were ACE2 receptors on the cell that the virus targeted.

Full disclosure... I take a low dose of Ramipril, so that article caught my attention.

Where are the test results. Last night it said a few hours. Did I miss them?

Donald Trump is ‘very concerned’ about coming into contact with people with coronavirus as Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro awaits test results after his aide caught virus following dinner at Mar-a-Lago

Talked with my doc about this yesterday. She and her colleagues are waiting for more data. Correlation is not necessarily causation. But she will switch me to a channel blocker if necessary.

Not to belittle this Covirus and all but right now 39 US deaths from it vs how many from regular flu and the media and politicians going nuts milking it for all it’s worth since the Trump impeachment was a dud.

Two months? That's nothing.

Sounds like we are hearing some folks close to the situation saying that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. That's a big change from "this is Armageddon?

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Here are his comments:

‘I’m not sure we’re going to get to that.

‘I think that would be really rather dramatic, but I can tell you that all things are on the table.

‘We just have to respond as things evolve over the days and the weeks,’ he said.

Where does he say he doesn’t think we will do it?
Headline is accurate. It’s ‘on the table’.

This kind of talk is nuts. Makes you wonder what their ulterior motive is.
