National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases head Dr. Anthony Fauci predicted Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that things were “going to get worse” as the Delta variant pushes a surge of COVID-19 cases in the United States.
Anchor Jon Karl said, “Help me understand. Are we headed towards a period once again where we’re going to see lockdowns, businesses shutting down, masks routine for everybody, or is this — or is this potentially just a temporary setback?”
Fauci said, Jon, I don’t think we’re going to see lockdowns. I think we have enough of the percentage of people in the country, not enough to crush the outbreak, but I believe enough to not allow us to get into the situation we were in last winter.
He continued, “But things are going to get worse. If you look at the acceleration of the number of cases, the seven-day average has gone up substantially. You know, what we really need to do, Jon — we say it over and over again, and it’s the truth — we have 100 million people in this country who are eligible to be vaccinated who are not getting vaccinated. We are seeing an outbreak of the unvaccinated. There are some breakthrough infections among vaccinated. You’d expect that because no vaccine is 100 percent effective. But in the breakthrough infections, they are mostly mild or without symptoms, whereas the unvaccinated, who have a much, much, much greater chance of getting infected in the first place, are the ones that are vulnerable to getting severe illness that might lead to hospitalization and, in some cases, death.”
Fauci added, “So, we’re looking not, I believe, to lockdown, but we’re looking to some pain and suffering in the future

Why can’t these communist octogenarians croak? Pelosi, Schumer, Fauci, et al.
DELTA mutation came from the vaccinated
Without Trump in the news, Fauci is talking about CNN and MSNBC's ratings dive unless they can keep the COVID fear porn going.
After enabling China to create a bioweapon which has killed millions and adversely affected the life of yet millions more, Fauci needs to be strung up in the middle of the Capitol complex oval. THAT should shut him up, and send him to the hell he so richly deserves. Don't tell me he didn't get "his share" from doing what he's done to make the virus possible, and for alarming people into getting his killer "vaccines" (for which he surely gets a rakeoff), wearing masks, etc. Die, you little Mengele!
Thank you LGBTQ+++++ vaccinated community! GO PRIDE!

Yep, that's a risk I'm fully willing to accept. Now go away.
Be prepared for a different answer tomorrow.
Fauci needs to start sharing some data when he makes these statements. I am less and less convinced that the unvaxxed are the main virus spreaders at the point. Show us the numbers!
It was extant in India first when there was little vaccination going on.
Would be a shame if he got his own self funded virus.
“ DELTA mutation came from the vaccinated”
That’s my take too.
Agreed, but that doesn’t disprove my assertion.
Ya mean like having millions of illegal alien cockroaches crossing the border everyday infected with covid, being sent all over the country to create a permanent Dem majority..yeah I got news for ya Fauci, the worst is already here
Scare tactics, and...
Childlike punishment for the entire country.
It’s like parents punishing all the kids, if none of them confess which one ate the cookies.
I agree- he is so full of it he makes an outhouse smell good.

I wish that Dr. Fauci would comment about experimental CV19 "vaccines" possibly interfering with herd immunity.
Noting that Sweden is poster child for politically incorrect herd immunity...
Was he touching/rubbing himself when he said that?
These comments from Fauci aren’t predictions, they’re threats.
Can’t get any worst than a Democrat controlled Government
