WASHINGTON - A top U.S. public health official said on Sunday signs of coronavirus spreading through communities were “not encouraging” and warned that Americans may need to think carefully about attending large gatherings if it continues.
“I think we’re getting a better sense as the days go by,” Anthony Fauci, the head of the infectious diseases unit at the National Institutes of Health, said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “Unfortunately, that better sense is not encouraging because we’re seeing community spread,” he said.“If you’re a person with an underlying condition and you are particularly an elderly person with an underlying condition you need to think twice about getting on a plane, on a long trip, and not only think twice, just don’t get on a cruise ship,” Fauci said on “Meet the Press.
“They call it ‘social distancing,’ but it’s common sense stuff,” he said. “You don’t want to go to a massive gathering, particularly if you are a vulnerable individual.”
The info is getting better from Fauci & others but still too vague. “Elderly” is misleading. Stats show increased fatalities starting at 50. Also should be age OR underlying illness - just one is enough to not travel.
