Virus, Not Humans, 'Makes The Timeline,' Fauci Warns As Trump Mulls Easing Restrictions
Donald Trump may want to reopen the U.S. economy by Easter but the novel coronavirus wreaking havoc across the globe may have other plans.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the countrys top infectious disease expert, pointed out Wednesday that the virus is determining the timeline for the pandemic.
Youve gotta be realistic, Fauci told CNNs Chris Cuomo when asked when states, including hard-hit California and New York, could expect to see a reduction of infections. Youve got to understand that you dont make the timeline, the virus makes the timeline.
States need to respond to whats happening in real-time, he continued. If you keep seeing this acceleration, it doesnt matter what you say. One week, two weeks, three weeks ― youve got to go with what the situation on the ground is.
