Even with the vaccine, the mask and social distance will continue until 2022, says Dr. Fauki


Dr. Anthony Fawcett, one of America’s leading public health experts, recently said that even after the coronavirus vaccine was developed, Americans would continue to wear masks for a while and practice social distance.

In fact, people should expect to wear masks and social distance by the end of 2021 and by 2022, he said.

Fauqi, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, made the remarks during a zoom meeting with faculty and students at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia last week.

During the meeting, in which Fawcett also predicted that any next vaccine would be only 70% effective, he noted that masks and social distance would be needed as it would take a significant amount of time before the herd’s immunity was achieved.

“By 2022, perhaps by the end of 2021, for a significant period of time, you won’t have a deeper degree of herd immunity,” he said. “I feel very strongly that we need to take some healthier health measures to keep going. They just aren’t going to be tight.”

He added, “It won’t happen like polio and measles, where you get vaccinated, the case closes, it’s done.” “It will be a public health measure that lasts for months and months.”

Fawcett also warned Americans against opposing the vaccine, saying it would be a “knockout punch” for the virus, noting that vaccines against respiratory viruses are often less effective.

“I tend to be conservative in my predictions of what is going to happen,” he said. “I think we’ve set reasonable expectations. If I’m pleasantly surprised, be it.”

News of Foi’s remarks comes amid criticism of President Trump’s health expert.

Trump argued in a campaign call Monday that many Americans are fed up with drastic lockdown measures that have prevented the economy from returning to normal levels and resulted in many Americans losing their jobs.

“People are fed up with COVID. I have these huge rallies,” Trump said on a call. “Whatever people say. Just leave us alone. They’re fed up with it. People are fed up with listening to Faucy and all these idiots … Fauci is a great person. He’s been here for 50,000 years.”

Trump later added to the call that Fauqi had been a “disaster.”
