Dr. Anthony Fauci says the state of the coronavirus in the US right now is “not good.”
In an online conference call with National Institutes of Health director Dr. Francis Collins, Fauci, the director of the Nation Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said, “we’re still knee-deep in the first wave of this.”
He said that cases have doubled in a week and a half as states and cities attempt to reopen their economies.
Fauci also offered an update on progress to create a vaccine for COVID-19.
He said the first candidate will be ready for trials to see if its effective against the disease by the end of this month.
He said scientists will know if one or more vaccines are safe and effective by the end of this year or the beginning of 2021.
He said manufacturers are working on producing the vaccines even before testing is complete, so doses can be distributed as soon as one or more of them are proven safe and effective.
For most people, the new coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough that clear up in two to three weeks. For some – especially older adults and people with existing health problems – it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia, and death.

Fauci says he is Italian, but he holds dual citizenship with Israel.

Fauci, Gates, Rockefeller had covid planned out in 2017. If part one and two doesn’t kill enough, part three and four will come out. They want population control and cashless society. They wrote about it in 2017

The public need N95 mask available to them. Every State needs to quarantine correctly and in unison. Fauci or government needs to be honest about this virus. If you are dead you are not going to worry about the economy. If people plan on sending their kids to school in the fall they are crazy. This virus is not going away until the reservoir it travels on is stopped. This means we all need to maintain a real quarantine. The virus is small enough to pass right through most regular masks , bandanas and cloth. You need a filter that blocks particles as small as this virus is. You need a proper mask that creates a seal around nose and mouth and blocks the virus from going through it. The N95 mask usually warn by hospital staff needs to be made available to the public. Fauci has not been honest about the facts of this mask. That is why he played down this issue because most masks the public has is not blocking the virus.

But it’s still okay if I take Fauci’s advice and “manage my personal risk” while looking for multi-partner bareback assbanging?
Thank God.

The 4:3 aspect ratio is just the perfect ironic symbolism for this message.
