Fauci, Virus Task Force Vanish With Trump All-In on Reopen

The task force is now reduced to weekly closed-door meetings with Vice President Mike Pence. Anthony Fauci, the top infectious disease expert in the government, hasn’t spoken publicly at the White House since April 29. In his last task force news conference, a week earlier, he cautioned that the country must “proceed in a very careful, measured way” to reopen.

I look forward to 2020 elections. It will be a real fight to defend the right to vote.

No more virus, the number of cases as winding down, soon to disappear like Trump's long promised miracle.

No one should be thinking about a resurgence of new virus infection just because stores are now open and consumers are nothing if not happy in their selective memory loss as it pertains to masks and social distancing.

Some one must be worried that the tens of thousands of good intentioned protesters that engaged in unrestrained close contact with strangers might become contagious and spread the virus far and wide.

All these people with their innocent, childlike giddiness are in for a rude awakening as Covid 19 incubates in all those active new hosts.

of the protests during Covid on her show all week. It is increasing in the Southern states already, the next month should see an increase as the virus spreads from the protesters.
