US could enter spring of 2022 with COVID-19 under control if enough people get vaccinated, Fauci says

(CNN) -- As the first full FDA approval is granted to a COVID-19 vaccine, Dr. Anthony Fauci urged the public to take part, saying if the "overwhelming majority" of the population gets vaccinated, the US could have the pandemic under control by spring of 2022.

"We hope we'll be there ... but there's no guarantee because it's up to us," Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the President's chief medical adviser, told CNN's Anderson Cooper Monday.

It isn't yet clear to health experts exactly what proportion of the population needs to be vaccinated to reach a level of protection that could sustain a return to normalcy, like safely going to restaurants and theaters, Fauci said. So, the best way forward is to vaccinate as many people as possible, he said.

“..I honestly hope he dies of cover...”

I guess I have to take a number and get in line for that one.
But, unfortunately he, and his fellow RAT communists have probably been on HCQ and zinc since a week before their planned, CCP-coordinated virus release date.

“We don’t know,” Fauci said. “Could be 85%, could be 90%”

“When polls said only about half of all Americans would take a vaccine, I was saying herd immunity would take 70 to 75 percent,” Fauci said. “Then, when newer surveys said 60 percent or more would take it, I thought, ‘I can nudge this up a bit,’ so I went to 80, 85.”

A nebulous goal. What is it? 80%? 90%?

Fauci has set back the image of public health by 20 years. Just an awful spokesman.

Prolly taking invermectin, hydroxychloroquine, zinc, Vitamin D and God knows what else surreptitiously.

You could say that about any leftist control freak. Fauci isn’t to be trusted, and contradicts today what he said yesterday and will contradict it again tomorrow. The dirty little secret is that the Pfizer ‘vaccine’ only offers ‘protection’ from covid for 7 days, and it isn’t worth 42 trillion spike proteins for that. I read an article on that, ‘Breaking: FDA gives its full approval to COVID vaccines; no public hearing; no transparency; no open review of vaccine data’, and you can give that a look at Canada Free Press. So that is why they rushed it through, so folks wouldn’t notice. Fauci went to a stadium and wore a mask on an empty infield to throw out a pitch then went into the stands and took off the mask to sit with friends. Video and picture proof online.

No, as we’re on a computer.

Odd, what makes me a troll?
Are you stating I’ve been here over a decade just waiting to make that comment?

It was the fastest approval ever by years. It’s impossible to know the long term ramifications. The FDA and CDC have lost any credibility they ever had.

The fda and cdc approved the tuskegee syphilis study for 40 years,the government told the african american people it was safe,,,does this sound familar?

During the 1885 anti-vaccine riots in Montreal anti-vaxxers claimed the smallpox vaccine was dangerous and "the mark of the beast". Sound familiar?

As long as our “leaders” think they can “control” a virus no deadlier than the flu, and as long as they believe that most of the sheeple will accept whatever inane dictates and propaganda they throw at them, this will never end. It will just continue to be used for what it has been used for from day one: absolute tyranny and control of the people.

The plan to control "covid" is to eliminate all of the potential hosts. Social distancing by killing lots of those would might interact and spread the contagion is the policy.

Of course it is. Obesity is one of the largest factors in covid causalities. Obesity is a indicator of overall bad health. America is full of fat people.

Studies: Obesity perhaps the most important risk factor for COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths [By Far!]
