As Covid-19 cases continue to jump during the fall surge, Dr. Anthony Fauci says there's little chance of normalcy on the horizon.
The US will have a vaccine in the next few months, but there's a chance a "substantial proportion of the people" won't be vaccinated until the second or third quarter of 2021, Fauci said.
The director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases reiterated caution on the nation's outlook.
"I think it will be easily by the end of 2021, and perhaps even into the next year, before we start having some semblances of normality," Fauci said during a University of Melbourne panel discussion Tuesday.
"We're not in a good place," Fauci during a virtual Q&A session on Wednesday. "Now we're averaging about 70,000 a (day). That's a bad position to be in."
There's no doubt masks make a difference, Fauci said.
"If you don't want to shut down, at least do the fundamental basic things, which are really the flagship of which is wearing a mask," Fauci said. "We can't have this very inconsistent wearing that you see, where you see some states that absolutely refuse to wear a mask

He’ll be comfortably retired by 2021.
Did Fauci say 2022 or 2220?
If Trump is re-elected I give it a month and a half
then the chinese let loose the next virus
Go away you old bastard.
Done with the unelected bureaucrats and their diktats.
Stick him in a decompression chamber and set it to 100%
Oh, FFS.. get out of the way, Fauci.
His mouth is obviously related to the Energizer Bunny.
It just keep going and going and going and going and going...
what ever “Normal Is?” I will never see mine again.....
You know, you post the joke about the fan...
Remember when he was going on about wearing goggles? My wife had a doctor appointment this week and the hospital staff were wearing them. Beyond ridiculous.
I’ll add Fauxi to the “gone by Nov 10th” list along with Wray, Barr and others. It’s past time for President Trump to lay down the law.
I won’t wear a effing mask doing any job. Period. My online teaching gig (pay is total shit, as it’s adjunct pay). Can survive on it living and teaching in the Philippines. Idiot center director wants to force us to return to face-to-face classes, with wearing of a face shield and a face mask. Sure the pay is better, but I can’t wear the things more than 10 to 15 minutes at a time. While I was still in Colorado, I stayed mainly in conservative Weld and Larimer Counties. Not anal about masks, unlike Boulder County.
Luckily the Games Department Head and all games development faculty said ix-nay to returning to campus. Not gonna happen. Teaching with it on is like running all conversations through a bad McDonald’s drive thru speaker.
CASE-DEMIC because the pandemic was over in June.
Lets triple the tests tomorrow then lock down the whole world because of the horrible 300% spike in cases!
Clowns are driving the bus.
The Chinese don’t have a second virus because Fauci has not there to make it for them.
Total BS. I live in AZ, which is pretty lax about enforcing masks. I never wear a mask and every time I enter any store I am the ONLY ONE who is not wearing a mask. I know because I'm specifically looking for fellow travelers. I would say we have 95-98% mask compliance in this country.
Guess what, Fauci - there IS a God and YOU'RE NOT HIM!
I wish that little worm would crawl back into his apple.
I am not going to wear a mask after Nov. 3.
I don’t care if I get arrested.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
