"No one appreciates me," says Trump, speaking of Fauci and the 1:16 pandemic.
(CNN) - Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's leading infectious disease expert, said on MSNBC on Wednesday that adherence to five principles could help stop coronavirus spikes in states.
The principles are:
Universal use of face masks
Avoid crowds
Physical distance of at least 2 meters
Typical hand hygiene
Avoid bars or close them if possible
Looking back on the situation in southern states that have already experienced flare-ups, Fauci said there was an increase in the positive percentage of the tests being done, which is "a sure indication that you are heading for a resurgence."
He said they were starting to see that now in some states, like Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio and Indiana.
Fauci added that he and other members of the White House coronavirus working group pointed out in the weekly call with the governors that “it is very important to get ahead of the curve, because what we are seeing now is what really happened a couple of years ago. weeks ”.

"If we don't start initiating fairly strict adherence to the five principles I just mentioned," said Fauci, "what's inevitably going to happen is that states that aren't in trouble yet are likely to get in trouble."
"If you are not preparing and suppressing the surge that is emerging, that is a little below the radar screen, before you know it, two or three weeks later, you are in trouble," he added. .
