While many Americans are hopeful things will go back to normal by summertime, one leading health expert is not so sure the nation will be out of the woods by then.
Dr. Deborah Birx, leading health expert and member of the coronavirus task force, believes social distancing guidelines will be with the nation through the summer.
Social distancing will be with us through the summer to really ensure that we protect one another as we move through these phases, Birx said.

I’m forced to agree with you. Either he muzzles the doctors and starts injecting some hope into the economy or he’s going to be in real trouble.
Task Force rule #1 needs to be that NOBODY speaks to the press but Pence.
Guidelines are one thing. Mandatory with tickets or fines is something else.
I believe there will be people trying to spread covid to all places where it not prevalent now. All to keep America down just to make Trump look bad and it will be about the election. Trump has surrounded himself with some anti Trumper who are dead set on bring him and America down. NYC is not America and should not be treated as such. I am using common sense and avoiding crowed.
Time to ditch the doctors.
Time for a reckoning with the left.
Imho, an amicable divorce is impossible.
BLOAT.

Every year it makes the news in my community
Which raises the questions:
Can COVID-19 be passed along by mosquitoes?
Can COVID-19 be transferred to local bat communities?
LOL!
“Kiss it, baby!”
I got your “social distancing” right here Debbie!
Not gonna happen. Closer we get to summer the more ridiculous these lockdowns will become and we will simply ignore. Yeah official festivals, parties, etc will stay cancelled but spontanious social gatherings will intentionally Spring up in Red states and will overwhelm any attempt to quell them. The new Trump rallies.
2 weeks of widespread random testing in Fl, NY, and Cal are showing that death rates are similar to flu, around .01 percent. This is new data a will be big news by the end of the week.

It’s time to bring in new medical advisors and get rid of Dr. Birx and Fauci and open up the country.
I got a beautiful handmade beaded necklace last year. Thirty dollars. Similar to the style worn by RBG.
The Bryant Park booths all kind of have the same stuff. I guess a lot of it is not what it claims to be. I don’t really shop at those. There’s another one at Columbus Circle.
So the phases will be with us through the summer?
F that.
President Trump has totally lost it in my opinion. If he continues on the economy ruining path mapped out for him by Fauci and Birx, he is toast.
....
Yep!
I have always been a strong Trump supporter, but I will not leave my better judgement and common sense at the door and pretend to not see what’s happening here!
Here’s the deal: social distancing is not stopping the spread of this bug. The numbers may have plateaued but they are not dropping. Thus, physical containment is impossible. This disease will reap its grim harvest no matter what we do.
All this social distancing is doing is delaying an inevitable outcome at the cost of destroying our country.
Pull the bandaid off, jump in the cold swimming pool. Let’s get it over with.
There is only one reason most of us went along with this in the first place.
Trump asked us to.
” As we inch closer and closer to the election. I know! Lets have mail-in ballots.”
.
Look for “corona outbreak” reports in September-October.
Progs will DEMAND 100% mail-in voting.
Prog media will beat that drum day and night.
Adam Schitt will begin investigations.
Nutcase nan will be crossing herself on national TV declaring PDJT will kill 20 MILLION if they have in-person voting.
.
I don't understand why the "experts" at the CDC and NIH don't have their own models that just work after all these years and million$ spent there. Just exactly what is their expertise then?
ask and you shall receive. I posted the CNN article on FR early April:
10 Apr: Hollywood Reporter: Dr. Anthony Fauci Jokes Brad Pitt Should Play Him on SNL
by Ryan Parker
After a serious Friday segment on the coronavirus pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci had to laugh when he was asked by CNNs Alisyn Camerota who he would like to play him when Saturday Night Live returns this weekend.
At first, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said he hoped he was not a character on the show, but when pressed a tad and given some options, it was clear who he wanted.
Oh, Brad Pitt, of course, he said with a chuckle. Another actor who has been floated as a possible SNL Fauci is Ben Stiller, Camerota noted...

Pitts Dr Fauci pokes fun at Trump on Saturday Night Live
Oscar-winning actor Brad Pitt has made an appearance on Saturday Night Live, playing the role of Anthony Fauci, Americas top public health adviser, to fact-check US President Donald Trumps claims about coronavirus.
Tonight I would like to try to explain what the President was trying to say, Pitt, dressed in a wig and glasses, said. Miracles shouldnt be Plan A.
After a clip in which Mr Trump appeared to float the question of injecting disinfectant or hitting the virus with a very powerful light, the video cut to Pitt as Dr Fauci with his head in his hands.
I know I shouldnt be touching my face, but
he says.
Dr Fauci has won widespread praise for his public messaging as COVID-19 spreads across the US, infecting more than 939,000 to date.
Mr Trump recently retweeted a post calling for Dr Fauci to be sacked, but later said he did not intend to fire him.
Pitt poked fun at that too, before finishing the shows opening segment by thanking Dr Fauci for the messaging he has been delivering to Americans.
