Dr Anthony Fauci Issues Warning To Americans, COVID-19 Situation Could Get Worse Since Many Are Still Unvaccinated
Dr Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, is warning of some pain and suffering in the future as coronavirus cases continue to rise.
According to AP report, Fauci, speaking on ABC’s This Week on Sunday, said he doesn’t foresee more lockdowns in the US, but warned that the situation surrounding the coronavirus pandemic will continue to get worse because so many Americans are still unvaccinated.
While this week the nation saw a surge in Americans getting the shot, as coronavirus cases rise driven largely by the more infectious delta variant, still only about 60 per cent of Americans are fully vaccinated.
Fauci argued that the unvaccinated are affecting others because they’re allowing the propagation and the spread of the outbreak, and pushed back against critics who say whether to get the shot is an individual decision.
Fauci said that those who choose not to get vaccinated are actually impacting the rights of Americans particularly prone to infection because they’re encroaching on their individual rights by making them vulnerable.
