Dr. Anthony Fauci on Thursday predicted that a new, more contagious COVID-19 strain that first appeared in the U.K. will spread across the U.S., but he added that “it does not appear to be more virulent.”
“We predicted it would be, when you have so much of it in the U.K., which then spread to other countries in Europe and Canada, it was inevitable that it would be here,” Fauci said on NBC News’ “Today.” “You’ll be hearing reports from other states and more cases in the state that is already reported. Unfortunately, that’s just the reality of the way these viruses spread.”
The first case of the strain found in the U.S. was detected on Tuesday in a Colorado resident who had not traveled abroad. “Today we discovered Colorado’s first case of the COVID-19 variant B.1.1.7, the same variant discovered in the UK,” Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis wrote on Twitter. “The health and safety of Coloradans is our top priority and we will monitor this case, as well as all COVID-19 indicators, very closely.”
On Wednesday, the first case of a more contagious strain of COVID-19 has been found in California, Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom said. “Just an hour or so ago we were informed that this new variant, this new strain that we have identified obviously from the U.K. and some other parts of the globe, identified in Colorado yesterday has been identified here in the state of California, in southern California,” Newsom said.

metmom :"They are broadcasting their plans.
Once you realize that when the left “predicts” something, it means they are letting you know
what their plans are for the future , you can prepare accordingly.
They “predict” it and then when it happens because they made it happen,
they tell us how good they are at predicting things and how we should listen to them."
blueplum : " The two Colorado cases (nat’l guard members assigned to a nursing home) and the San Diego case, are all three community spread.
That is, none of the three have any outside the US travel history"

as there is much controversy on this topic.
If the wuhanvirus spreads even more then that means Fauci and his pals will make even more money.
So your response is not to discuss what she was responding to, but change the subject?

Predictive programming. I still remember a TV reporter just filling in some time while they were waiting on JFK to make a speech. He was outside shaking hands with the crowd.
The reporter mentioned that such things make the Secret Service very nervous, and then began to read a synopsis of what happened when an assassination attempt was made on another President. A few hrs. later JFK was killed. Just a coinky dink though.
Every time I hear the words “Fauce says” I wonder, what lies he is going to tell, or what evil plot he’s going to announce. It would be nice if he was suddenly stricken mute, fired, and removed from our lives forever.
“ Glad that I don’t watch TV and am not exposed to the cult of celebrity.”
Indeed ....Fauci is no celebrity in these parts.
