Market Watch, “They thought that they were home free and they weren’t.” Fauci days Covid-19 resurgence in Europe is a warning for the U.S., March 16, 2021: “That was the message from Dr. Anthony Fauci, who warned that as COVID-19 cases plateau around 50,000 to 65,000 a day in the U.S., it is ‘absolutely no time to declare victory.’

“’When we see that leveling off at a high level, there’s always a surge of a risk back up. And in fact, unfortunately, that’s exactly what’s happening in Europe right now,’ said the U.S.’ top infectious-diseases specialist in a Fox News on Sunday appearance.

Europe, which ‘always seems to be a few weeks ahead of us,’ had the same kind of decline when they plateaued, Fauci pointed out. ‘They thought that they were home free and they weren’t. And now they’re seeing an increase up. We have to avoid that,’ he said.
