(Reuters) – The U.S. government’s top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, said states experiencing high numbers of coronavirus cases should reconsider imposing lockdown restrictions, with the need to get case counts to a low baseline before the fall flu season.
“What we are seeing in some of the yellow states and other states is that same insidious increase in percent positive that we had seen and pointed out … in states like Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Minnesota and others”, Fauci said during an interview with the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).
