US may not be back to normal until 2022, Fauci says

As Covid-19 cases continue to jump during the fall surge, Dr. Anthony Fauci says there's little chance of normalcy on the horizon.

The US will have a vaccine in the next few months, but there's a chance a "substantial proportion of the people" won't be vaccinated until the second or third quarter of 2021, Fauci said.

The director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases reiterated caution on the nation's outlook.

"I think it will be easily by the end of 2021, and perhaps even into the next year, before we start having some semblances of normality," Fauci said during a University of Melbourne panel discussion Tuesday.

"We're not in a good place," Fauci during a virtual Q&A session on Wednesday. "Now we're averaging about 70,000 a (day). That's a bad position to be in."

There's no doubt masks make a difference, Fauci said.

"If you don't want to shut down, at least do the fundamental basic things, which are really the flagship of which is wearing a mask," Fauci said. "We can't have this very inconsistent wearing that you see, where you see some states that absolutely refuse to wear a mask

try one of these. It vents out the back and you need a fan for to keep the face clear. I like it because it’s black and freaks everyone out.

What a toad. Masks are theatre unless they are properly cared for and are of appropriate material, thickness, and fit. Which they rarely are. They are also unnecessary in most indoor settings and hardly ever necessary in outdoor settings.
Masks are part of precautions taken. Not the precaution. As far as I know must studies on mask use include the caveat that hand washing and keeping appropriate distances should continue.

There are situations where wearing a mask would be appropriate. In those cases it would be important to follow guidelines on design and care. Otherwise why bother? Most likely improper care and design increase the risk of spreading the virus.

The virus will continue mask or no mask, lock down or no lock down. It will do so until the number of hosts are reduced. That means developing immunity either by people getting the virus and gaining immunity or by a vaccine or series of vaccines. Meanwhile we need to go on about our lives.

By the by whatever happened to simply covering your mouth and nose when you sneeze or cough? If the whole argument for masks is they slow droplet transmission isn’t a solid barrier such as a tissue in your hand better than a piece of cloth?

I’ll add Fauxi to the “gone by Nov 10th” list along with Wray, Barr and others.

And how is Trump going to replace them without going through the senate? Trump has never had the opportunity to make a recess appointment. mcconnell will only let Trump pick people he has already approved of. schumer would be no better. You all think Trump can put whoever he wants wherever, but the truth is he is at the whims of the senate.

The US will NEVER be “back to normal”. The goats are being identified as they come out of the swamp all across America. . .all ages, all sizes, all colors, all genders and are showing that they are willing to be influenced by demonic forces. The true sheep certainly realize that seeking their Shepherd’s Will and following His Direction is the ONLY Way.

if Biden wins then this would be the last election. How? It will lead to nationalizing federal elections (A Federal Uniform Voting Rights Act which would also define local and state elections and primaries). They will get covid to easily last long enough to justify mail in ballots for all states and voter fraud will decide Primary wins for establishment republicans/democrats (has been happening for a while in primaries for some states like Utah, my opinion).

That's what NPR continues to repeat, too, but the anti-vaccine and anti-mask nonsense won't keep us from voting next Tuesday. Along with all of my Republican neighbors, I'll be voting while wearing a mask and acting like a civilized, clean cut adult. Just before going in to vote, we'll be saying hello to voting farmers in their seventies and eighties.

“I’ve been getting the word ‘pepare’ in my spirit for months now.”

Prepare in more ways than one. Not date setting, however.

Republicans, ignore the Democrat campaign of lies and fear. Wear masks. Vote! Your country is calling you!

Democrats plan to give statehood to Puerto Rico and Washington D.C...and maybe a California split to afford even more Democrat electoral votes. That’s another part of the plan to permanently prevent a Republican majority in the Senate.

Then there’s the plan for ending the legislative filibuster and instituting absolute gun control including a return to pistol bans. You see, after the takeover, they’ll own the military and police forces and plan to make examples of a few people every week with pre-dawn raids for firearms confiscations in nearly every locale: a campaign of terror and control.

That’s what you really have to fear. Vote next Tuesday! Vote like your lives and the lives of your descendants depend on it!

Not if Fauci can help it. Maybe never if Fauci has anything to say about it.

The most dangerous place in the US is between Fauci and a camera.

I read somewhere (probably here, LoL) that diagnosis of seasonal flu is down 97% this fall.

The dems never want us to go back to the wholesome, free life we used to know.

They hate righteousness and freedom and simply want power and the ability to control everyone else’s lives.
