6. Remember that asymptomatic people are contagious
For Fauci, the fact that asymptomatic people are contagious is among the most disturbing parts of the coronavirus outbreak. He quite often expressed his belief that the presence of asymptomatic cases is why so many people ignore taking the virus seriously and why it continues to spread so easily from one person to another.
As Fauci explained in an interview for ABC Good Morning America, “25 percent [to] 45 percent of the totality of infected people likely are without symptoms, and we know from epidemiological studies that they can transmit to someone who is uninfected even when they are without symptoms.” The secret is to behave as if everyone has it, and to take the appropriate precautions.
7. Get the vaccine when it’s available
After reviewing the Phase One data from the coronavirus vaccine trials, Fauci said the results were “very good news.” However, growing resistance to vaccines more generally, and skepticism about the rate at which the coronavirus vaccine is being created, could mean that many Americans refuse to be vaccinated.
“It’s understandable but unjustified,” Fauci said in response to the skepticism. “We’re not compromising safety; we’re not compromising scientific integrity.” In an interview with CNN, he raised concern that if enough people had opted against getting the vaccine, we would not be able to achieve herd immunity. Instead, Fauci recommends that once it’s available, we should all get vaccinated.

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.
