Fauci says new Covid-19 cases are at a disturbing level as the US is primed for a surge

(CNN) The number of new Covid-19 cases has plateaued at a "disturbingly high level," and the US is at risk from a new surge, Dr. Anthony Fauci warned on Wednesday.

While lower than the peak earlier this year, there were still more than 61,000 new cases reported on Wednesday, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. And the lack of continued significant decreases in infections is a concern, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases told CNN's Anderson Cooper, particularly given the spread of variants.

"It's almost a race between getting people vaccinated and this surge that seems to want to increase," Fauci said, noting Europe is experiencing a spike much like the one experts worry about for the US.

To fight the variant, Fauci urged Americans to get vaccinated and stick to preventative measures.

"Hang in there a bit longer," he said. "Now is not the time, as I've said so many times

No, the fact is simply this, people are finally living their lives... all your lockdowns did was time shift things..

Reality was it was obvious LAST APRIL there was no risk of overwhelming the system.... and if hot spots had flared up, limited geographical lockdowns would have handled it..

This has never had anything to do with science or safety.

It is beyond shameful...

The most dangerous place to be is between Fauci and a camera.

"Former CDC Director said that the virus came from the Wuhan lab."


Oh, i forgot. you are a Republican. Blind, deaf and dumb.

I hate the GOP. They backstabbed Pres. Trump and do not
tell the Truth, like you.

===> This is where the atrocity CDC-FauXi virus came from.

Cases LMFAO! Get the Fedgov shot endorsed by Fauci anyway because he says so. If these clowns have their way, COVID will become the Flu season and this societal rot and government tyranny will be the new norm.

The only surges I see are surges in totalitarianism.

Better be careful with that word. AOC might accuse you of racism - AOC says calling border crisis a ‘surge’ pushes white supremacy. /s

“Is fauci conversing with the virus?”

Yes, by check. He directed millions to the Wuhan Level IV Lab where the ChiCom People’s Liberation Army worked on its bioweapon.

It escaped prematurely.

And, yet, on Tuesday the Sixth Dr. Doom told Morning Joe on MSN “As long as we keep vaccinating people efficiently and effectively, I don’t think [a fourth wave’s] gonna happen,” Fauci told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” He did, however, say that the U.S. could still witness an increase in cases, and that the reopening of multiple states could contribute. But, he said, “I think the vaccine is going to prevent that from happening.”

Seriously, how many times do they think they can keep claiming "The sky is falling!" or "The sky is about to fall!" before we simply stop listening?

To listen to them we've been on the edge of the abyss, on the verge of being totally boned, for over a year now. No really, it's there, just out of sight - like global warming, climate change, racism, the fleas in the circus... you just can't see it, but trust me, pay me, do as I say...

The only thing we've gotten bent over from is the government destroying jobs and lives while claiming unprecedented, unconstitutional powers.

It is generally thought that the sole function of viral membrane fusion proteins is to allow the viruses to bind to the host cells for the purpose of viral entry into the cells, so that the genetic materials can be released and the viral replication and amplification can take place.

However, recent observations suggest that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein can by itself trigger cell signaling that can lead to various biological processes. It is reasonable to assume that such events, in some cases, result in the pathogenesis of certain diseases.

Our laboratory only tested the effects of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in lung vascular cells and those implicated in the development of PAH. However, this protein may also affect the cells of systemic and coronary vasculatures, eliciting other cardiovascular diseases such as coronary artery disease, systemic hypertension, and stroke. In addition to cardiovascular cells, other cells that express ACE2 have the potential to be affected by the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which may cause adverse pathological events.

Thus, it is important to consider the possibility that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein produced by the new COVID-19 vaccines triggers cell signaling events that promote PAH, other cardiovascular complications, and/or complications in other tissues/organs in certain individuals (Figure 3). We will need to monitor carefully the long-term consequences of COVID-19 vaccines that introduce the spike protein into the human body.

Furthermore, while human data on the possible long-term consequences of spike protein-based COVID-19 vaccines will not be available soon, it is imperative that appropriate experimental animal models are employed as soon as possible to ensure that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein does not elicit any signs of the pathogenesis of PAH or any other chronic pathological conditions.
