2. Wear a mask
On Friday, Fauci encouraged public officials to be “as forceful as possible” in order to get people to wear masks, CNN reports. “When you have crowds of people together and you have the lack of wearing a mask, that increases the risk of there being transmissibility. I have no doubt about that,” he explained in an interview for CNBC’s Halftime Report.
Though early on, Fauci supported leaving masks to medical professionals, for the past few months he has been clear in his statements that mask-wearing is an essential line of defense against the virus— and is definitely something we should all do every time we go outside.
3. Maintain social distance
Fauci was very specific about the importance of social distancing in the answer to the pandemic. In an interview for ABC’s Powerhouse Politics podcast, Fauci stated that the “best way that you can avoid either acquiring or transmitting infection is to avoid crowded places,” in addition to wearing a mask.
In addition, he recently told the Senate Committee that new coronavirus cases “could increase to 100,000 a day” if people do not practice social distancing and consistent mask-wearing in public. In response to a question from Senator Elizabeth Warren about the cause of the increase in the number of cases, Fauci referred to the large-scale gatherings. “Look at some of the film clips you’ve seen, of people congregating, often without masks,” he said. Avoiding these gathering is crucial if you want to keep yourself and others safe.

Follow Fauci’s advice? I’ll pass.
He’s only the leading infectious disease expert in the country. What are you?
Good to hear these good recommendations again and again. We should be reminded every few months. Our lives and experiences change . So a well written reminder that even with change applying these simple rules will help us to come through these very difficult times.
You’re joking, right? Fauci? The same man who wrote a paper 15 yrs ago thrilled that chloroquine was so very effective against coronavirus? And then less than 1 yr ago said don’t use it, that it needed more testing, wait for the big expensive money-maker vaccine?
It’s called, Science. As scientists continue to study and learn things change as well as recommendation. Science does not get everything correct on the first go around. Science does not take the simple minded approach
Follow Dr. Fauci? I would NOT follow this guy to the men’s room in a public restaurant. He’s bad news!
Thank you Sr Fauci!!
Wow. No. 13 is the one thing I really needed to know! Thank you.
We really appreciate these suggestions. I specially learned that we need to keep the shopping bags from outside
left untouched for 24 hours before use.
Thanks we appreciate these suggestions.

Why should you leave your groceries sit fir 24 hrs? Does What effect does it have?
What if you have mild products or poultry, etc.?
Are these products allow to set out of the refrigerator?
are you for real he is the most self serving devil who caused seriously death in the aids virus for financial gains , stopped doctors from prescribing hydroxychloroquin yet an article surface from years back with him saying its a wonder drug for all sars. corona viruses …hes in bed with gates and the whole crooked lot they have blood on their hands
was i deleted for honest comments on that jerk fauci?
Stupid trumpers! Wash your hands and wear a mask. Dr. Fauci is right. trump got rid of him because he didn’t agree with trump.you are all stupid if you don’t follow this guys directions.
Who is calling who stupid? Take a look in a mirror and say that again. People need to use common sense and logic. Don’t be a follower, be informed.
All these “Talking Heads” are tied up with Power and Money Grabs to consider telling you the truth.
If you want to hear the truth, listen to Dr. V. Be prepared for some strong language and the TRUTH.
I wouldn’t believe anything Dr. Fauci has to say. He’s NOT reliable!!
Maybe you do not want to wear a mask, but at least you can be respectful to others and wear a mask for comfort and safety protection. Since you deo not know and you obviously don’t you pro9bably help destroy the 400,000 thousand plus that are dead now. These scientists and doctors went to schools just for this type stuff, let’s give the a try.
The thing with science and medicine is that it is constantly evolving the more we learn… thinking that advice from 15 years ago is still applicable is laughable. I’m sticking with Fauci.
