Fauci: ‘Unless We Get the Virus Under Control, the Real Recovery, Economically, Is Not Going to Happen’

‘So what you do if you jump the gun and go into a situation where you have a big spike, you’re gonna set yourself back’

EXCERPT:

FAUCI: “I think the message is that clearly this is something that is hurting from the standpoint of economics, from the standpoint of things that have nothing to do with the virus. But unless we get the virus under control, the real recovery economically is not going to happen. So what you do if you jump the gun and go into a situation where you have a big spike, you’re going to set yourself back. So as painful as it is to go by the careful guidelines of gradually phasing into a re-opening, it’s going to backfire. That’s the problem.”
