Anthony Fauci, the nations leading infectious disease expert, reportedly said Wednesday that a second wave of the coronavirus is "inevitable" later this year.
"If by that time we have put into place all of the countermeasures that you need to address this, we should do reasonably well," Fauci told CNN in an interview. "If we don't do that successfully, we could be in for a bad fall and a bad winter."
The head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said that if states ease restrictions too quickly, the country could see a surge that would "get us right back in the same boat that we were a few weeks ago, adding that widespread testing is needed to avoid such a path.
"The truth is that we're going in the right direction," he said. "But we need to continue to partner in a very active collaborative way with the states, we need to help them the same way they need to do the execution."

"Its inevitable that the coronavirus will return next season When it does, how we handle it, will determine our fate, Fauci told NBC.

I wonder if he has had any communication with Hillary since or before she endorsed Biden....or since the beginning of 2020.
Trump should put a muzzle on this clown. Trump says we need get back to work, this a hole gets out there and undermines anything he says. Could he be correct, well, he could. Then again, he might not. When he offers these little tidbits to IMO undermine Trump, someone should ask him point blank, what do you recommend. When he says something like keep up the stay at home till 2022, one should then ask, how will the country survive such an inane plan. We are six weeks into this nonsense now and already we are having food delivery problems plus at least a 4 trillion budget deficit. What happens after 52 weeks?? 32 trillion deficit and victory gardens across every yard and roof top in the country?? Last question for the twerp, where is that AIDS vaccine you promised 15 years ago and one more, why did you give about 7Million to china to develop a bio weapon? Assign him to give Romney an injection of clorox.
Trump should take the guy’s advice, cancel the election and appoint himself President for 4 more years....and say “if it saves one life, it’s worth it”.
A very large number of us are.
Sorry to sidetrack the point, but I just had to amplify. :)
He better watch his a$$ because if there is another wave there is going to be severe retaliation!
When are you and your commie pals plan on releasing it this time, Fauxi??? He should be in jail for giving those SOBs $3.7 million.
He’s a RAT accomplice. He and the PIAPS should be made cellmates.
Rope. Chair. Blowtorch. Some Assembly May Be Required.
“Is this the “science” we’re supposed to trust?”
The left, and make no mistake Fauci hails from the left, must keep the fear going.
I think if we went all out, turned open the flood gates, hugging and kissing in the streets, no distancing, it would be bad, but eventually, it would burn out. Just as Sweden’s death toll is about 3 times what it is in Ohio, (similar population size), we’d probably quadruple the death toll. 200k, maybe 250k? Tragic, but, an existential threat? A 0.7% death rate?
I’m not suggesting we just go wild. I’m just putting the real threat in perspective.
If the DOJ does not set up a public ELECTRIC BENCH
soon for these criminals (after very fair military trials),
there will be a CW like this planet has never seen.
He doesn’t know that and neither does anyone else.
The guy is a flat-out liar.
Exactly correct! If we defeated the curve, why are we still dealing with these people? Trump is being held hostage by the threats of someone dying from the virus that could have been saved with lockdown! His role as President is protect our constitutional rights, not our health.
Once his cronies [CoughGatesCough] have scored billions of $$$ with their soon-to-appear vaccine, Fauci will STFU. Not until then.
Ya think? He is deep state. Most of us figured that out months ago. Furthermore, he sent almost $4million to the Chinese virus lab that started all this mess. This was a legal violation. Fauci is a snake.
Thank you for posing that!
The melodramatic really needs to stop. Now.
Fauci as noted by a wise FReeper, is a man in love with the camera and his own voice.
Apparently the purpose was to stretch out the patient load on our hospitals until the November election, not to end the pandemic.
Second wave of flu inevitable
Second wave of common cold inevitable,
.ETC....ETC...ETC...!
He's a media whore.
I wonder about that myself not to mention, the media.
I have never been able to understand why he is even on this “task force” or whatever you want to call it.
I would be surprised if COVID-19 returns in the fall.
We are hearing the same thing here in Japan, and the precautions are being advised in the strongest of terms, likely the state of emergency here will be extended.
Fauci has is right. CDC’s Redfield also issued the warning, if US does takes down its guard. (What are people going to do, fire HIM because they don’t want to be confused with scientific data and empirical extrapolation and analysis? Gee, maybe we could put Diamond and Silk and Laura Ingraham in charge down in Atlanta). Same warnings today from Germans Hospital Socity (DGK) and Berlin’s Charite Hospital in Germany; then the same warning today in U.K. Prof. Robin Shattuck / Imperial College (they had a solid study); National Institute of Infectious Diseases here in Tokyo also states that while the Wuhan “edition” was the first wave, the European “edition” will be the second wave and is alerting Japanese policymakers.
