Fauci delivered the somber warning Tuesday to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions during a hearing about the road to reopening businesses across the nation. U.S. officials have pointed to the development of a vaccine as a key turning point in the Covid-19 pandemic, even though it will take a at least 12 to 18 months.
As experimental vaccines are created, they will also need to be mass produced to be administered to the more than 7.6 billion people around the world. In the meantime, there are not yet proven treatments for virus.
Faucis comments highlight another complexity in the path to a vaccine.
You can have everything you think thats in place and you dont induce the kind of immune response that turns out to be protective and durably protective, Fauci said of a vaccine. So one of the big unknowns is, will it be effective?"

And I could give a rats rear-end if Im labeled a NeverTrumper for my criticism of Trumps inaction on this!
***************
While I support Trump and have steadily donated to him I’ve never been into blindly following or worshipping anyone. Its not a healthy nor intellectually honest thing to do IMO.
And we have a winner!
President Trumps #1 problem has always been his misplaced loyalty to people who constantly undermine him and stab him in the back, and his tendency to keep them on long past the time he should have let them go.
It's given him a lot of totally avoidable pain during his presidency.
duckduckgo has sites that say he is 5’7”... looks shorter when he goes to the podium and mic others have used. Could not find a reference to his height on google... maybe I am not good at searching. s/
Last I checked, CNN was completely ignoring it. Literally, not a story anywhere. Guess what they were covering this morning? Fauci's testimony, the "jogger" in Georgia.... and Trump's still-not-released tax returns. Can you believe that? Anyone who gets their news solely from CNN and the MSM probably hasn't heard the name Flynn in three months.
Hell, China will be covering the cost of the bail out (Chinese Debt).
Ok, so no use in waiting for one.
Open up now.
And California...no end in sight. Not even sure if the kids will be back in school in the Fall.
All of this crap is a far, far cry from "15 Days to Stop the Spread."
IMO POTUS really needs to kick the stink of these medical terrorists off of him, dump the testing/tracing/vaccine rhetoric immediately and replace it with efforts to reopen the entire country at 100% now. TODAY
I was late to the Trump train in 2016, but since then, every time anyone — ‘Rat, Media, Never Trumper — anyone thinks Trump is down for the count, he gets up and delivers a TKO.
Maybe Fauci is the guy finally take Trump out, but my money is on the orange guy.
I may not be happy with everything he says, but he's been, for the most part, staying withing medical science bounds and acknowledges that is his only area of expertise...the President takes the input and makes his decisions based on that - and if he was/is at odds with the data received, he will take that into account.Have you been watching the testimony today?
If so, have you actually listened and digested what has been said w/o them pesky emotions gumming up the ability to think rationally?
CYA...scumbag
“Bachelor of Arts in classics”
Wow, this guy is a paragon of scientific capability.
Went to Med School when Gentleman’s C’s got you in, as long as you were from the right school.
Now you can’t show up without a heavy biochem background and > 500 on the MCATs.
The people who didn’t get into med school this year have far more background then Tony the Hack.
Reality sucks...get over it.
99% of the population of the world could do the job better than this mealy-mouthed incompetent.
Maybe we can do to Fauci the same as was done to Napoleon. Send him to a tiny island far from anywhere and put troops there to stop him from escaping.
Watching this all play out, one thing that strikes me is that Trump’s instincts were honed in the business world, not politics or law or the academe. The only thing that matters in business is “does it work?”.
He’s like every other billionaire I’ve worked for in this regard: he surrounds himself with the smartest experts in a range of fields he can find, and then seeks their opinions, giving weight and consideration to opinions that run counter to his instincts. It’s a fast way to sort the wheat from the chaff.
I don’t think politicians work that way, and Fauci may have been given too much rope, but Trump’s looking for results, and has shown himself to be quick on his feet.
Bill Gates has long indicated hed hed feel safer if a billion or two people suddenly disappeared.
quick to market
safe
effective
The research and development just doesn't work that way...no matter what Dr. Fauci says...
Get your physical self to your voting place....do not vote early or by mail... your vote will not be use unless needed or it will be lost or disqualified for time.
You are a kool-aid drinker an dont even know it. What will you do when the American dollar and economy collapse because Fauci and Gates destroyed us. For what? ...a coughing virus affecting primarily 80 year olds (that will never be eradicated), has a .1% death rate? You think you will be spared? Faucis prophesies have already proven untrue. Yet you believe him because you are deceived on purpose.
Can he get an Oscar or Emmy for that?
