EXCERPT:

ROBACH: "I'm curious with all that you just said and where we are now as a nation, what do you make of Florida’s decision to ease the restrictions opening up bars and restaurants?"
FAUCI: “Well that is very concerning to me. I mean, we have always said that, myself and Dr. Deborah Birx, who's the coordinator of the task force, that that’s something we need to be careful about. Because when you’re dealing with community spread and you have the congregate setting where people get together particularly without masks you’re asking for trouble. Now is the time to double down. And I don’t mean close. When I say that, people get concerned we’re talking about shutting down. We’re not talking about shutting anything down. We’re talking common sense public type of health measures that we’ve been talking about all along.”
