The chief infectious disease specialist of the United States, Anthony Fauci, said that the increase in cases of COVID-19 in the country, which reached 60-70 thousand people a day, is unacceptable and causes concern. It is reported by CBS.
According to the specialist, he is concerned that the number of new cases of coronavirus infection in the United States has begun to plateau after a “very sharp” decline over the past week and a half. “Reaching a plateau of 60 to 70 thousand new cases per day is an unacceptable level. It's really very high, ”Fauci said.
The infectious disease specialist added that authorities will continue to rely on mass vaccinations and recommended restrictions in the fight against the pandemic.
On March 2, Fauci revealed the possible dangers of Pfizer and Moderna's strategies to vaccinate people against coronavirus with just one dose of the drug, not two. Prior to this, the infectious disease specialist warned that new mutations of the virus could reduce the effectiveness of vaccinations, but they should still be done.
