Dr Anthony Fauci has warned of ‘some pain and suffering in the future’ as coronavirus cases continue to rise, but said that he does not see the need for new lockdowns.
‘I don’t think we’re going to see lockdowns,’ Fauci told Jonathan Karl of ABC’s This Week on Sunday. ‘I think we have enough of the percentage of people in the country – not enough to crush the outbreak – but I believe enough to allow us to not get into the situation we were in last winter.’
The nation’s top infectious disease expert warned, however, that ‘things are gonna get worse’ and the number of COVID-19 cases will continue to rise because so many Americans are still unvaccinated.
