‘We Are Still Knee-Deep in the First Wave,’ Fauci Warns
Dr. Anthony S. Fauci said on Monday that he did not consider the increase in U.S. coronavirus cases a wave, but rather a resurgence of infections.
The current state is really not good in the sense that, as you know, we had been in a situation — we were averaging about 20,000 new cases a day. And then a series of circumstances associated with various states and cities trying to open up, in the sense of getting back to some form of normality, has led to a situation where we now have record-breaking cases. Two days ago, it was at 57,500. So within a period of a week and a half, we’ve almost doubled the number of cases. We are still knee-deep in the first wave of this. And I would say this would not be considered a wave. It was a surge or a resurgence of infections superimposed upon a baseline, Francis, that really never got down to where we wanted to go. If you look at the graphs from Europe — Europe, the European Union as an entity — it went up and then came down to baseline. Now they’re having little blips, as you might expect, as they try to reopen. We went up, never came down to baseline, and now we’re surging back up. So it’s a serious situation that we have to address immediately.

Title: Dr. Anthony Fauci Addresses Resurgence of Coronavirus Infections in the US

Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, recently shared his perspective on the increase in US coronavirus cases. In a interview on ABC's "This Week," he clarified that he does not consider the current situation a wave but rather a resurgence of infections.

With the high levels of immunity in the population, thanks to vaccinations, boosters, and previous infections, the chances of an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations are believed to be low. However, Fauci emphasized the importance of not becoming complacent, stating that the US could face a significant challenge if the infection rate is not curbed during the summer.

The US has experienced three major coronavirus disease outbreaks since 2002, including SARS, MERS, and the current COVID-19 pandemic. Fauci highlighted the progress being made in developing potential pan-coronavirus vaccines. However, he cautioned that these vaccines are not expected to be available within a month or two.

As of late February 2020, there were only 60 confirmed cases and zero deaths related to COVID-19 in the US. By July 2020, the virus was raging out of control in many states, leading to public health experts warning Americans about the dangers of the pandemic, while remaining optimistic about the prospects of a vaccine.

Currently, the US is witnessing a rise in COVID-19 infections, with the number of cases doubling in just a week and a half. Despite this, officials are not predicting a tsunami of hospitalizations and deaths similar to what was seen a year or more ago.

Dr. Fauci continues to encourage Americans to stay up-to-date on CDC-recommended COVID-19 vaccinations and to intensify public health measures. As the country's leading infectious disease scientist, Fauci remains committed to offering a dose of reality to the public, emphasizing that the coronavirus pandemic still poses a threat.

In conclusion, the resurgence of coronavirus infections in the US calls for increased vigilance and adherence to public health measures. While high levels of immunity in the population may help mitigate the severity of the situation, it is crucial to continue efforts in controlling the spread of the virus and developing more effective vaccines.
Title: Fauci Describes Current U.S. Coronavirus Increase as a Resurgence, Not a Wave

Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the renowned infectious disease expert and former White House pandemic advisor, recently shared his perspective on the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. In an interview on ABC's "This Week," Fauci clarified that the recent uptick in coronavirus cases should not be considered a wave, but rather a resurgence of infections.

The increase in cases comes as the nation experiences its third major coronavirus disease outbreak in the past two decades, following SARS and MERS. Fauci emphasized the importance of immunity acquired through vaccination and past infections, explaining that this immunity reduces the likelihood of an overwhelming surge in cases and hospitalizations.

Despite the progress in vaccine development, Fauci cautioned against expecting pan-coronavirus vaccines to become available in the immediate future. He urged the public to remain vigilant and up-to-date with recommended COVID-19 vaccinations.

As of late, the number of coronavirus cases in the U.S. has doubled over the course of a week and a half. However, public health experts, including Fauci, are not anticipating a tsunami of hospitalizations and deaths similar to what was seen at the beginning of the pandemic.

Fauci also addressed the recent resurgence of the virus in New York City, which has been attributed to mass protests. He stressed the need to bring down the number of cases, aiming for a daily count of 10,000 or less. Currently, 40 states and territories have reported an increase in cases over the past two weeks.

In summary, Fauci's expert analysis suggests that the recent increase in COVID-19 cases in the U.S. is a resurgence rather than a wave. While immunity from vaccinations and past infections may help mitigate the impact, Fauci emphasized the importance of adhering to public health measures to control the spread of the virus.
Title: Dr. Fauci Addresses Resurgence of Coronavirus Infections in the US: A Need for Intensified Public Health Measures

Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the nation's leading infectious disease expert, recently clarified his perspective on the rising number of COVID-19 cases in the US. In an interview with ABC's "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl, he explained that the uptick in infections should not be considered a wave but rather a resurgence. This resurgence is due to the ebbing immunity of those previously infected and the increased transmissibility of the current virus variants.

Despite the concerning increase in cases, Fauci believes that the chances of an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations are low. This is mainly because of the level of immunity acquired through vaccinations and previous infections. According to Fauci, "people who have been vaccinated, boosted, people who have been infected like you and I, where we have hybrid immunity, the chances of this being an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations is probably low."

The US has experienced three major coronavirus disease outbreaks since 2002, including SARS, MERS, and the current COVID-19 pandemic. Fauci emphasized the importance of not letting our guard down, as there are potential vaccines in development that could provide broader protection against coronaviruses in the future. However, he cautioned that these vaccines are not expected to be available within a month or two.

Fauci remains concerned about the potential strain on healthcare systems during the fall and winter months if the infection rate is not significantly reduced by summer. He urged the public to remain up-to-date on the CDC's recommended COVID-19 vaccinations and to continue practicing public health measures such as wearing masks, social distancing, and washing hands frequently.

The recent surge in cases is a reminder that the coronavirus pandemic continues to pose a threat to public health. Despite facing criticism and attempts to discredit his credibility, Fauci remains committed to providing accurate information and guiding the nation through this ongoing public health crisis.

As of late February 2020, there were only 60 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the US. Since then, the number of cases has grown exponentially, with over 7 million confirmed cases and over 64,000 deaths attributed to the virus. Forty states and territories have reported increases in cases over the past two weeks, with New York City experiencing a particular surge due to mass protests.

The resurgence of COVID-19 cases highlights the need for intensified public health measures. It is crucial for the public to stay informed and follow the guidance of health experts like Dr. Fauci to mitigate the spread of the virus and protect vulnerable populations. By working together, we can help control the pandemic and return to a sense of normalcy in the near future.
Title: Dr. Fauci Refers to Current Increase in US Coronavirus Cases as a Resurgence, Not a Wave

Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the renowned infectious disease expert, recently shared his perspective on the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. In an interview on ABC's "This Week," he clarified that the recent increase in coronavirus cases should not be considered a wave but rather a resurgence of infections. This distinction is crucial, as it highlights the ongoing nature of the pandemic and the importance of continued vigilance.

According to Dr. Fauci, the increased immunity among the population due to vaccinations, boosters, and previous infections reduces the likelihood of an overwhelming surge in cases and hospitalizations. However, he emphasized that the situation should not be taken lightly, as the number of coronavirus cases in the US has doubled over the past week and a half.

Dr. Fauci's primary concern remains the potential strain on healthcare systems during the upcoming fall and winter seasons. He strongly advised that the public should not become complacent but instead intensify public health measures to help control the infection rate. These measures include maintaining social distancing, wearing masks, and getting vaccinated against COVID-19.

It is important to note that Dr. Fauci, who served as the White House's top pandemic adviser until 2022, continues to provide valuable insights and guidance despite facing challenges during his tenure. At times, his assessments have contrasted with political leaders' more optimistic views, causing friction in his role. Nonetheless, Dr. Fauci remains committed to sharing accurate and evidence-based information to help protect the public and mitigate the impact of the pandemic.

With three major coronavirus disease outbreaks, including SARS, MERS, and COVID-19, over the past two decades, the world has become increasingly aware of the need for effective pan-coronavirus vaccines. Although significant progress has been made in developing such vaccines, Dr. Fauci cautions that they are not expected to become available within a month or two.

The resurgence of COVID-19 cases serves as a reminder that the pandemic is still a threat to public health. In response to the ongoing situation, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stresses the importance of staying up-to-date on recommended COVID-19 vaccinations.

In conclusion, Dr. Fauci's expert opinion on the current increase in US coronavirus cases as a resurgence rather than a wave emphasizes the ongoing nature of the pandemic. With continued vigilance and adherence to public health measures, the public can help control the infection rate and protect vulnerable individuals from severe illness.
Title: Fauci Describes Current US Coronavirus Increase as a Resurgence, Not a Wave

Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the renowned infectious disease expert, clarified his stance on the recent upsurge of COVID-19 cases in the United States. In a Monday interview with ABC's "This Week," he emphasized that the current situation is more accurately described as a "resurgence of infection" rather than a wave.

Although the number of coronavirus cases in the US has doubled over the past week and a half, Fauci believes that the nation's immunity levels, achieved through vaccinations and previous infections, make it unlikely for the country to experience an overwhelming surge in hospitalizations similar to those seen a year or more ago. However, he urges the public to remain vigilant and maintain recommended public health measures to further diminish the infection rate.

Since the SARS outbreak in 2002, the US has experienced three major disease outbreaks caused by coronaviruses, including MERS and the current COVID-19 pandemic. Fauci highlighted the ongoing progress in developing potential pan-coronavirus vaccines but cautions that they are not expected to be readily available within a month or two.

Fauci's main concern lies in the possibility of a significant increase in COVID-19 cases during the fall and winter months if the infection rate is not effectively blunted by summer. Despite attempts by some individuals to discredit his credibility, Fauci continues to provide the American public with realistic assessments of the current pandemic.

It is crucial for people to stay up-to-date with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) recommended COVID-19 vaccinations. Even as the situation improves, the public must remain cautious and adhere to public health guidelines to ensure long-term progress in managing the virus.

In summary, while the recent surge in COVID-19 cases in the US is concerning, describing it as a resurgence rather than a wave acknowledges the existing immunity in the population. Continued vigilance, adherence to public health measures, and staying current on vaccinations are essential for controlling the pandemic's spread and safeguarding public health.

## Fauci: U.S. Seeing Resurgence, Not Wave, of COVID-19 Cases

**Washington, D.C.** - Despite a doubling of coronavirus cases in the United States over the past week and a half, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, former White House pandemic advisor, maintains that the current increase is a resurgence, not a new wave of infections. 

Speaking on ABC's "This Week," Fauci attributed the current situation to the high level of immunity in the population, thanks to vaccinations, boosters, and prior infections. He emphasized that the chances of this resurgence leading to an overwhelming surge in hospitalizations and deaths are low.

"Given the level of immunity that we all have... the chances of this being an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations is probably low," Fauci stated.

While acknowledging the concerning rise in cases, Fauci stressed the importance of continuing public health measures and staying up-to-date on COVID-19 vaccinations. He expressed concern about the potential for a more severe situation this fall and winter if infection rates are not controlled by summer.

Fauci's comments come amidst a backdrop of rising COVID-19 cases across the country.  First Lady Jill Biden recently tested positive for the virus, highlighting the ongoing threat posed by the virus.

However, Fauci remains optimistic about the development of pan-coronavirus vaccines, although he cautioned that they are not "literally around the corner in a month or two."

"We have potential vaccines making significant progress," Fauci said. "I don’t want anyone to think that pan-coronavirus vaccines are literally around the corner in a month or two."


The resurgence of COVID-19 cases serves as a reminder of the ongoing need for vigilance and public health measures to mitigate the spread of the virus.

## Fauci Calls Recent COVID-19 Surge a "Resurgence," Not a Wave

**Washington, D.C.** -  Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, former White House Chief Medical Advisor, downplayed concerns about the recent surge in U.S. coronavirus cases, characterizing it as a "resurgence" rather than a new wave.  Speaking on ABC's "This Week," Fauci emphasized the high levels of immunity in the population due to vaccination and prior infections, suggesting that a catastrophic surge in hospitalizations and deaths is unlikely.

"Given the level of immunity that we all have... the chances of this being an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations is probably low," Fauci stated. He pointed to the widespread vaccination and hybrid immunity (from both vaccination and prior infection) as key factors mitigating the impact of the surge.

Despite the relatively low risk, Fauci stressed the importance of continued vigilance and public health measures. "We really need to intensify the public health measures that we talk about all the time," he urged.

The surge in cases, which has doubled in the past week and a half, has sparked renewed concern about the virus's potential to cause widespread illness. However, Fauci remains optimistic that the current situation will not reach the severity of previous waves.

Fauci's comments come as the country experiences a rise in COVID-19 infections, with 40 states and territories reporting an increase in cases over the last two weeks. The surge has sparked concerns about the potential for a new wave of the pandemic, but Fauci remains cautious in his assessment.

"It's too early to tell if those stumbles will mean we miss an outbreak... It's a pray-and-see situation," Fauci said, emphasizing the need for continued vigilance and adherence to public health measures.

Fauci also highlighted the progress being made in developing pan-coronavirus vaccines, which could provide long-term protection against COVID-19 and other coronaviruses. However, he tempered expectations, saying that such vaccines are not "literally around the corner in a month or two."

The top infectious disease expert also expressed concern about the potential for a more severe outbreak in the fall and winter if the country does not blunt the infection rate by the summer. "We really need to intensify the public health measures that we talk about all the time," he said.

Fauci's comments are a reminder that the COVID-19 pandemic is far from over, and that continued vigilance and caution are necessary to prevent a resurgence of cases. As the country navigates this new phase of the pandemic, Fauci's expertise and guidance remain crucial in informing the public and policymakers about the best course of action.

In related news, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has emphasized the importance of staying up to date on recommended COVID-19 vaccinations, and public health experts are urging Americans to remain vigilant and take steps to protect themselves and others from the virus.

As the pandemic continues to evolve, one thing is clear: Dr. Fauci's voice remains a trusted and authoritative source of information, and his warnings and guidance will continue to shape the country's response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
**Fauci Downplays Recent Surge in US Coronavirus Cases, Calls it a "Resurgence" Rather than a New Wave**

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's leading infectious disease expert, said on Monday that the recent increase in US coronavirus cases is not a new wave of the pandemic, but rather a resurgence of infections. Despite a doubling of cases in just a week and a half, Fauci told ABC's "This Week" that the level of immunity in the population, thanks to vaccines and previous infections, makes a massive surge of hospitalizations and deaths unlikely.

Fauci's comments come as the US has seen a significant increase in new cases, with 40 states and territories reporting an uptick in the last two weeks. The country has also logged its 7 millionth confirmed coronavirus case. However, Fauci stressed that the situation is different from previous waves of the pandemic, thanks to the high level of immunity in the population.

"Given the level of immunity that we all have... in other words, people who have been vaccinated, boosted, people who have been infected like you and I, where we have hybrid immunity, the chances of this being an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations is probably low," Fauci said.

Fauci's assessment is in line with those of other public health experts, who have expressed optimism about the prospects of a vaccine for COVID-19. However, he cautioned that it's still too early to predict when a vaccine will be available, and that it's unlikely to be ready in just a month or two.

The recent surge in cases has sparked concerns about a potential new wave of the pandemic, particularly in areas with low vaccination rates. However, Fauci emphasized that the key to controlling the spread of the virus is to intensify public health measures, such as vaccination and social distancing.

"We really need to intensify the public health measures that we talk about all the time," Fauci said. "It's of critical importance that people remain up to date on CDC's recommended COVID-19 vaccinations."

Fauci's comments come as the US prepares for the fall and winter seasons, which are expected to bring a new challenge in controlling the spread of the virus. Fauci has warned that the country will be put to the test during this period, and that it's essential to blunt the infection rate by the summer.

While some experts have expressed concern about the recent surge in cases, Fauci's assessment provides a more nuanced view of the situation. As the nation's leading infectious disease expert, Fauci's comments carry significant weight, and his message of caution and optimism is likely to be closely watched by policymakers and the public alike.
**Fauci Downplays COVID-19 Resurgence, Urges Public to Remain Vigilant**

In a television appearance on Monday, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former White House top pandemic adviser and current Georgetown University professor, cautioned against alarmism surrounding the recent surge in COVID-19 cases in the United States. Despite a doubling of cases over the past week and a half, Fauci emphasized that the current situation does not constitute a "wave" of infections, but rather a "resurgence" of cases.

Fauci attributed the increase in cases to a combination of factors, including the high level of immunity in the population due to vaccination, boosting, and previous infections. However, he warned that the public must not become complacent and should continue to take public health measures seriously.

"We've got to get those numbers down," Fauci stressed, emphasizing the importance of maintaining vigilance against the virus. He highlighted the progress being made in developing pan-coronavirus vaccines, but cautioned that they are not yet available and will require rigorous testing before they can be widely deployed.

Fauci's comments come as the country grapples with a rising number of cases, with 40 states and territories experiencing an increase over the past two weeks. The surge has sparked concerns about the potential for a new wave of hospitalizations and deaths, particularly in areas with low vaccination rates.

However, Fauci and other public health experts are not predicting a catastrophic outcome, citing the significant progress made in developing treatments and the existing immunity in the population. "It's not a tsunami of hospitalizations and deaths the way we saw a year or more ago," Fauci said.

The Biden administration has urged Americans to remain up to date on CDC-recommended COVID-19 vaccinations, with Fauci emphasizing the importance of intensifying public health measures to blunt the infection rate. As the country heads into the fall and winter seasons, Fauci warned that the virus could still pose a significant threat if not managed properly.

In the face of the resurgence, Fauci's message remains one of caution and vigilance. "We really need to intensify the public health measures that we talk about all the time," he said. As the nation navigates this latest phase of the pandemic, Fauci's expertise and guidance remain crucial in informing the public and policymakers about the best course of action.
Dr. Anthony Fauci Downplays Rise in COVID-19 Cases, Calls it a Resurgence Rather than a Wave

Despite a recent surge in coronavirus cases in the United States, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former White House top pandemic adviser and current Georgetown University professor, has downplayed the increase, saying it is a resurgence of infections rather than a new wave.

"I don't think we're going to see a wave of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths the way we did a year or more ago," Fauci said during an appearance on ABC's "This Week" with co-anchor Jonathan Karl. "Given the level of immunity that we all have, the chances of this being an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations is probably low."

Fauci's comments come as the number of coronavirus cases in the United States has doubled over the past week and a half. According to the latest data, 40 states and territories have seen an increase in cases over the past two weeks, with the country logging its 7 millionth confirmed case just days ago.

However, Fauci is more concerned about the potential for a significant outbreak in the fall and winter, warning that the country could be "put to the test" if it does not blunt the infection rate by summer.

To mitigate this risk, Fauci stressed the importance of intensifying public health measures, including staying up to date on COVID-19 vaccinations. "We really need to intensify the public health measures that we talk about all the time," he said.

Fauci's comments come as public health experts express growing concerns about the potential for a new wave of cases, particularly in light of recent mass protests in New York City and other areas.

The rise in cases has also sparked renewed calls for increased vaccination efforts, with Fauci and other experts emphasizing the need for Americans to remain vigilant and take steps to protect themselves and their communities.

While some have expressed optimism about the prospects of a vaccine for COVID-19, Fauci cautioned that it is still too early to predict when such a vaccine might become available. "Vaccines are not literally around the corner in a month or two," he said. "There are many factors that need to come into play before we have something that we can count on to give us population immunity."

As the country continues to grapple with the ongoing pandemic, Fauci's comments serve as a reminder of the ongoing importance of public health measures and vaccination efforts in preventing the spread of COVID-19.
