Dr. Fauci: Unless We Get Coronavirus Under Control, Chance It Will Become Seasonal

RUSH EXCERPT:

DR. FAUCI: Well, you bring up a very good point, Margaret. Unless we get this globally under control, there’s a very good chance that it will assume a seasonal nature in the sense that even if we, and I- and I hope it’s not just if but when we get it down to the point where it really is at a very low level, we need to be prepared that since it unlikely will be completely eradicated from the planet, that as we get into next season, we may see the beginning of a resurgence. And that’s the reason why we’re pushing so hard and getting our preparedness much better than it was, but importantly, pushing on a vaccine and doing clinical trials for therapeutic interventions so that hopefully if in fact we do see that resurgence, we will have interventions that we did not have in the beginning of the situation that we’re in right now.
