Washington — Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to President Biden, said Sunday it's too early to say whether Americans should avoid larger family gatherings for Christmas, while the nation experiences an uptick in new COVID-19 infections among children alongside lagging vaccination rates.
In an interview with "Face the Nation," Fauci said it's "just too soon to tell" whether holiday gatherings should be limited for the second year in a row due to the ongoing pandemic, but said Americans need to focus on lowering the number of new infections and hospitalizations.
"We've just got to concentrate on continuing to get those numbers down and not try to jump ahead by weeks or months and say what we're going to do at a particular time," Fauci told "Face the Nation. "Let's focus like a laser on continuing to get those cases down. And we can do it by people getting vaccinated and also in the situation where boosters are appropriate to get people boosted."
The country hit another grim milestone in the coronavirus pandemic, surpassing 700,000 deaths from COVID-19 on Friday. But the surge of new cases, hospitalizations and deaths driven by the highly contagious Delta variant appears to be slowing.
Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, warned the turnaround should not make Americans complacent or lead to a plateau in vaccination rates among those who are eligible.
"If you look at the history ... of the different surges we've had, it's come up, start to come down and then all of a sudden boom, come back up again," he said. "As it's coming down, we have within our capability, we can make this happen. Namely go down to a very, very low level, with vaccination and with mitigation."

Dr. Fauci says “it’s just too soon to tell” if you can gather for Christmas this year

Screw you fauxxi. what my family does on any given day is less than zero of your business. We don’t wear masks, we have not been vaccinated, we gather quite often in large, large groups. We laugh, we sing, we cough, sometimes we sneeze… All together.
Fauxxi=liar=dustbin
Nobody would invite him anyway.
Weather is pretty nice tonight. I’m tempted to go sit on the back porch. Is this Fauci-compliant this week?
No. Americans need to focus on saying “F-You, Fauci.”
LOLOL! Maybe that’s what chaps his ass.
Yet #facsistfuaci continues to remain mum on the invasion taking place on the southern border....
Three words, “F you Fauci!”
Now I’m going to invite relatives, neighbors, and clients that I normally don’t have over for Christmas.
Prolonging the Plannedemic Puritanism appears to be the goal.
If a second Easter, a second Independence Day, a second Thanksgiving and a second Christmas can be squelched through fearmongering (if not outright government oppression) it may not be much longer before people will not only not wish to return to pre-Plannedemic celebrations, but will actually begin to lose the memory of what such celebrations were like.
This is the CCP’s global “Cultural Revolution”.
Fauci is such a generous overlord. We should all be so grateful he is the watchman at the gate. He is so honest.
Let him screw up Thanksgiving first folks. No need to hurry on to Christmas already.
Hell, I’d take a break from my own Christmas just to sit outside his home with bullhorn and commercial grade fireworks
What an idiot. Did he check out any NFL games today. Who is going to not go to christmas dinner after the football games.
I don’t think it’ll work this year. People have lost the fear and are taking personal control of their healthcare.
