The former FDA commissioner has said he believes the downward trend in coronavirus infection rates will continue through the summer.

Dr. Scott. Scott Gottlieb said that despite new changes to the virus that pose a risk of infection, he believes rates will continue to fall.

The Daily Nxgiving and Christmas holidays have already reached their lowest levels of daily average deaths and hospitalizations.

There were 1,286 deaths per day in the last 24 hours, the lowest since October 23 at the start of this winter’s wave of infections.

On Sunday, the number of people currently hospitalized with the virus was 56,159, down from 40 consecutive days of hospital admissions.

“It’s a tragic step on the United States, but in my view we should be optimistic. I think we will continue to see a reduction in infection rates in the spring and summer. Right now, they are declining quite dramatically. I think these trends are likely to continue, ”Gottlieb, sitting on Pfizer’s board, told CBS News.

‘The rising rates of vaccinations and the fact that we have injected a third of the country, it is safe enough immunity. If you look at the counties of New York and New Jersey that have a widespread prevalence of more than 45%, i.e. more than 45% of the population getting infected over the winter, they can’t really increase the winter numbers much.

“Once you get about 40% of the population with some kind of protected immunity – you don’t have mob immunity because it will continue to migrate, but it will migrate at a much slower rate,” Gottlieb explained.

Gottlieb said he believes Pfizer and other companies that are producing the vaccines will be able to ‘better prepare for the fall’ and develop boosters for new types of spread viruses.

‘I think we will have spring and summer to do this. I don’t think we’ll always reach the crowds ’immunity. Hopefully we will vaccinate the elderly population against this, but this will continue to spread. ‘

Gottlieb also said he believes this fall may be the right time for school children to be vaccinated as well.

‘I think it’s possible that this vaccine could be moved to the high school population in the fall. We have seen a higher prevalence in high schools than in primary schools. The risk is lower in grade-school age children. I don’t believe this vaccine will be moved to 12-and-under in the fall.

Gottlieb theorizes, ‘It may be a question of trying to improve the vaccine at a lower dose for young children, as they develop stronger immunity to the vaccine.’
