Fauci: Gradual rollback of coronavirus restrictions could 'probably' start next month
The Hill ^ | 04 12 2020 | Rebecca Klar

Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said Sunday that some parts of the U.S. could possibly begin rolling back restrictions put in place in response to the coronavirus as early as next month.

“I think it could probably start, at least in some ways, maybe next month,” Fauci said on CNN’s “State of the Union” when asked when the restrictions may begin to be lifted.

“We are hoping at the end of the month we can look around and say, 'Is there any element here we can safely and cautiously start pulling back on?' If so, do it. If not, then just continue to hunker down,” Fauci added.

Fauci also stressed that reentry measures will depend on the situation in each area of the country and will have to be gradual.

“It is not going to be a light switch,” Fauci said.

He added that officials will have to look at the nature of the outbreak that a region has already experienced as well as the threat of an outbreak it may not have experienced yet. The situation in New York, the state that's been hit hardest by the pandemic, will be different from the situation in Arkansas, he said.

Not all of NY.

Only downstate and NYC.

The rest of NY is not in that bad shape as far as cases go.

Hey Fauci; remember this? You're not supposed to use it as TP even during a shortage.

This is going to be timed perfectly for the November elections! The Dems, the Media and Fauci are all high-fiving each other. And Trump is praising Fauci! I do not it!

Just Fauci trying to get out in front of Trump’s likely action to pretend he still has influence.

“(Bill Gates) who openly advocates the elimination of a significant portion of the human population?

And he wants us to voluntarily be injected with something he invents, too.
He wants people to die.
He wants to inject something in our arms.
Should we be suspicious?

The Texas governor knows his days are numbered regarding his executive orders. They are bullshit and have no weight of law. Neither do the orders by Texas mayors or Texas county commissioners that reference a Texas law regarding “disasters”. They cannot overrule the US Constitution and throw out numerous rights including due process.

There will be lots of litigation coming. All it takes is for one lawyer to get a judgement regarding the takings clause. That might be hard because of the huge scope of the resulting flood of damages but it’s possible.

These politicians who have illegally destroyed people’s property better get their acts together and quickly. The cure was worse than the disease and now we are looking for a monster mess that goes on and on after the doors of business get opened back up.

A grocery store distributes food. A restaurant distributes food. How can anyone in government say one lives and one dies? Without due process? How can they say Wal-Mart stays open but the dry cleaners cannot?

These moronic politicians can’t seem to fathom that they produce not a penny and that by destroying their own tax base they are screwing themselves.

What a mess......

Considering the nation runs on a total deficit, they don’t have to care.

A lot of these were more specific. They did send children home from school for flu. Polio involved closing down all the swimming pools, people with Tuberculosis had to be self-quarantine, etc.

Your “relatively un-affected” parts of the county are just now getting it. Watch the maps. It’s just now starting to get a foothold west of I-35 in TX. Give it two weeks from all of Gov. Abbott’s crowded Easter services today and TX is going to be another hot spot right in time for him to open up.

I agree, note the recent insanity of these “stimulus” packages. Insanity.

But, it does not work that way with local governments. These local mayors who have killed businesses that generate tax revenue are going to have issues. This will also likely have an impact on housing values and that reduces their tax base also.

One good thing about this mess is that maybe more regular folks will run for office. Why? Well, for one the government may have trashed their business and they are mad and two they can see that nobody in government seems to ever lose their jobs. Lol.

That’s the question I have too.
Fascist Fauci knows he is about to get an end run around him
and “The Scarf” Brix.

Everything in life’s a calculated risk...

I drive my car but not a hundred miles an hour in town and not in the in the Daytona 500.

There’s a lot of room between ‘nothing’ and ‘all’...

The little, PIAPS-loving, commie SOB is NOT POTUS!!
Everything this azzclown has said and done has been nothing but doom & gloom to hurt the USA & President Trump. He is on the enemy’s side and has been from the very start.
He needs to be GONE...NOW....period.
