Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said Tuesday that there are signs that mitigation strategies implemented in response to the coronavirus pandemic may be starting to have an impact on the number of COVID-19 cases.
We're starting to see glimmers that that is actually having some dampening effect, Fauci said in an interview with CNNs Jim Sciutto. But that does not take away from the seriousness of what you've described on this show.
Fauci noted that the number of cases is still increasing, and virus hotspots like New York are appropriately trying to accommodate by opening up facilities to help manage the number of cases.
In New York City, the Javits Center and a U.S. Navy hospital ship docked in the city's harbor are being set up to treat patients without the disease as hospitals reach capacity.
We are still in a very difficult situation. We hope, and I believe it will happen, that we may start seeing a turnaround, but we havent seen it yet, Fauci said. Were just pushing on the mitigation to hope that we do see that turnaround.
Fauci said the next couple of weeks are a critical time, when asked how Americans should be preparing for the coming weeks.

I pray he’s right, I don’t know how much longer I can stand Andy Cuomo’s droning powerpoints.
Perfect. Or
Agree....That’s why Trump just lets him shoot his mouth off and the President will give details AFTER the worst has passed. Then he’ll fire his a**.
This is all about the public health bureaucracy playing CYA.
The CDC committed an EPIC FAIL here in their basic mission, tracking emerging disease.
By rights many questions should be asked and heads should roll. Swamp bureaucrats have been playing the game for decades though and they came up with an immune response.
“Well, 2.2 million people would have died. But only 100K did because you all did what we told you to do. We’re heroes! Bring on the tickertape parade! No need for nasty investigations.”
Youre an idiot if you dont understand that lockdowns and social distancing lowers the R0 of this. No-lets just leave it at you are an idiot. I trust the president and his team to look at the same data-not only from this team but also from DTRA. You? You are an idiot. I trust and support the President and Vice President Pence and what they have recommended. People such as yourself have cut them off at the knees at every turn and have hampered their ability from day ONE.
Heh. How convient.
“I tried to contradict the president, but people were given hydroxychloroquine anyway. They listened to Him! Instead of me and now, (sob) they...(sob)they’re....(sob)...they’re not dying like they were supposed to!
Mark Levin played the clip last night where 9 weeks ago Dr. Arthur Fonzarelli Fauci said coronavirus is nothing to worry about.
Dr. Anthony Fauci (Jan-26-2020):
“Coronavirus isn’t something the American public need to worry about...It’s a very, very low risk to the United States.
Check out the latest. If youre not in NYC, I wouldnt worry about this at all.

That doesn’t mean anything. It’s only at this point TODAY - at which point the data hasn’t been reported. Click on “yesterday.” As far as I can see, there’s absolutely nothing to be encouraged about.
I’m amazed that this guy can even tear himself aware from the mirror when he wakes up in the morning.
He truly loves to hear himself speak.
There are far too many stupid people on this site that have undermined the President and his team from day one. They think they support him by undermining what he is trying to do and by doubting what he is saying publicly. They are the real enemy-not the democrats.
Fauci - "That's not fair! You're using stuff I said previously!"
Probably be less much sooner if the liberal judge had let Trump’s initial blocking of Chinese flights into NYC to take place.
