Washington Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, had a straightforward message Wednesday night about how long the novel coronavirus could affect daily life in the US:"You don't make the timeline, the virus makes the timeline."
"You've got to be realistic," Fauci told CNN's Chris Cuomo on"Prime Time." "And you've got to understand that you don't make the timeline, the virus makes the timeline. So you've got to respond, in what you see happen. And if you keep seeing this acceleration, it doesn't matter what you say. One week, two weeks, three weeks -- you've got to go with what the situation on the ground is.
The virus makes the timeline however we're not all snowflakes and some of us are willing to fight for our God given rights in spite of the challenge
Now we know Y Italy is suffering so many deaths fr Corona--It was due 2 the large of Chinese tourists who were infected, while the Chinese Govt kept it a secret. China must pay BIG!! BOYCOTT ALL CHINESE PRODUCTS.
AllenSc93390181 Well said, Dr. Fauci.
WE HAVE TO GET BACK TO WORK. THE EFFECTS OF NOT WORKING WILLBE FAR WORSE THAN THIS VIRUS.
CNN will use Fauci to try to make Trump look bad. Even in an amazing time of crisis, CNN practices their terrible narrative
Trump is not going to care until you man up and verbally kick him in the dick. Tell the people of the states that trump is WRONG when he speaks
The comments “appear” to be at odds. No not even close, but the Clown News Network wants you to believe that. On one hand you have the President being optimistic, on the other hand you have the Doctor creating stay at home expectations until the good news you can have both
Time to stop airing the Trump propaganda daily broadcast. EnoughIsEnough
jaketapper To remind Fauci is a Doctor and not a President. He worries about health. Trump has many more hats to wear. Economy, Militarily to name a few. MSM is cheering for a fight or failure at what human cost? Trump doing ok and he is the President like it or not.
You keep reporting that this is very fast spreading and contagious. Really? If so then use the numbers you keep telling us are there. That there are atleast 8 infected for each confirmed case when calculating mortality rate. If you do rate is more like .18% not 1, 2 or 4 percent
Hate to say it but why are we social distancing for. If the virus makes the time line then we can't do anything about it. But they say we are flattening the curve to change the time line. He is very good but you need a mix to get the whole story. Never going to come from CNN.
Is a time line in your pants
Where's the vaccine fucki
Yes yes and yes it really depends on the VIRUS's PLATEAU that death tolls stopped and starting to decline. realDonaldTrump should give the floor ONLY to Dr Fauci. He is the only person who takes this COVID19 Pandemic Crisis seriously without sugarcoating the real SITUATION.
Funny, that’s the one line you keep pushing.
jaketapper CNN would love to see economy close rest of the year that they can blame this Great President.NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN .. BestPresidentEver Trump2020LandslideVictory
susannareid100 Someone best tell Donny Orange. He's planning on it being done by Easter!!
But Easter would be “beautiful”
We make the timeline. The virus can go fuck itself. 😉
Have you tol6 this to the president
Thank you Dr. Fauci. It’s time Trump starts praying to his Maker. He’s going down - straight to hell.
I dip, you dip we dip. Dancing with the devil takes two undulating timelines, sir. Both sides, the virus as a single force and the US as a single force are Dancing at 100 MPH KGWNews potus SethAbramson OregonGovBrown tedwheeler
The Dr. Already said POTUS was flexible with the Easter timeline. Don't watch ChrisCuomo so unsure if he clarified that with the doc? Or just let it pass? Dosen't look like CC got much print for his interview while thumbing on Twitter.
ChrisCuomo Thank heavens for Dr. Anthony Fauci. The voice of reason in a nutcase Trump administration.
Virus is the boss, not you.
More people believe Dr. Fauci than Trump (and rightfully so since Fauci is the actual medical expert). It won't be long before Fauci finds himself fired for being too correct and too popular.
Just love wise educated people
ChrisCuomo In other words: Pay no attention to the idiot president
You bet, Dr. Anthony Fauci ain't going to sell his soul and credibility for any anecdotal information that's not based on science.
Please wear a mask!Whether you are sick or not！Please protect yourself and others at the same time!
I hope a certain someone listened to this message and rescinds their comments on 'opening up' and loosened restrictions by Easter.
ChrisCuomo Had conked out Chris. Just caught repeat. Gr8 segment! U shud have been Stabler on SVU. It was very reassuring 2 see our beloved Dr. Fauci. And not the apprehensive 1 standing next to hovering Trump... Trump
It's to shut Trump up. We can't afford his misinformation or idiotic ideas. He wants to open up the country, get more people infected and prolong this crisis. Somebody has to take the reigns of power from him.
This doctor is not here to sugar coat the situation. It's nice to have someone willing to tell the naked truth. scientistsrule
This guy is awful! I’m done with him!
Especially in the dense populated cities. It varies from county to county.
Trump promised the night before Easter it will be gone from Earth
Everyone pray Trump doesn't fire Dr. Fauci
CNN licking Fauci asshole once again .. he is a doctor not a deity quit acting like he is the messiah
No,the truth makes the timeline. Whether doc says it or not, truth prevails. CNN, are you enjoying this crisis? You seem to not want treatment that has been used, and seem to want to take Trump off from communicating to the ppl. We don't watch you. You are no longer the news.
RIGHT
He also requested news organizations to stop painting some sort of divide between him and the President, but here you are...
Will you release the footage of Dr. Fauci? You cut him off during the press conference. I trust him wholeheartedly. Please show what you cut off.
goconstance We need you to fight so hard for us the other party has done this to us Chyna trying to defeat our president
Trump: nonono，Make Epidemic Great Again
Right
Fake news
Well, the virus said Easter.
