Fauci: US shouldn't loosen coronavirus restrictions until daily new cases fall below 10,000

The United States shouldn't ease restrictions in place to prevent Covid-19 before the number of new coronavirus cases falls below 10,000 daily, "and maybe even considerably less than that," Dr. Anthony Fauci said Thursday.

The US should pull restrictions gradually, after a substantial portion of Americans are vaccinated, Fauci told CNN's Jake Tapper.

Fauci's comments come as some states begin to pull back restrictions, including doing away with mask mandates, allowing businesses to fully open and increasing the number of people allowed at mass gatherings.

That is "inexplicable" Fauci said earlier.

Why 10,000? Why not 9,000? Or 8,000?

Because the “expert” made it up.

And when we reach 10,000, it will be 10,000 for 10 weeks months...

As usual, more wisdom pulled from “Doctor” Fagsi’s glory hole.

To illustrate how arbitrary this is - what happens if everybody stops getting tested? New cases will drop to zero and problem solved!

Not quite:

“Gov. Mike DeWine provides a benchmark for removal of coronavirus public health orders
When Ohio gets down to 50 cases per 100,000 people for two weeks, all health orders will come off, Gov. Mike DeWine announced Thursday night.”

https://www.cleveland.com/open/2021/03/gov-mike-dewine-provides-a-benchmark-for-removal-of-coronavirus-public-health-orders.html

At least he has placed a goalpost and established a broad timeline...more than Wolf has done in PA.

This guy is such a fraud. He’s copying DeWine in Ohio and making it up as he goes.

Any decent journalist would have crushed him publicly months ago, but journalism is dead now.

If I remember correctly Fauci bragged how in the past he changed numbers based on how well they would be received by the public. I can’t understand why anyone would pay give credence to a self professed chronic liar.

before the number of new coronavirus cases falls below 10,000 daily

That is the essence of the liberal Democrat solution. 10,000 refers to a national number. Thus, one size fits all. It matters not that new cases have dropped precipitously in some states and/counties. We must all lock down until every state sees lower numbers.

One size fits all. Every time.
