Anthony Fauci says “we’re really far” from any effective immunity registry
’s side for his daily coronavirus task force briefing on Tuesday.
No. No. It’s not increasing. It’s steady. But young people, they get infected. It is more likely, if you’re young and healthy, that you may have what’s called an asymptomatic infection. You won’t know that you’re infected. But you still can inadvertently and innocently spread the virus to someone who is actually quite vulnerable. You know, your grandmother, grandfather. Your uncle who just finished chemotherapy for cancer. Or someone who has a compromised immune system.
No. That’s a great question. I’m glad you asked that. There is a misconception that that is a responsibility of the federal government. The best way to get things done locally is if they’re done and actually supervised locally. The federal government should serve as the backup. In other words, if a state is really strapped, and doesn’t have the resources, or doesn’t have the tests to kind of purchase them in a way and get them to the local area.
We keep hearing the words, “contact tracing.” Can you just explain how that works? Because that feels crazy to me that you can trace a person’s movements over the course of several days. Yeah. Well, you know, that is the historical question that gets asked. Do you give up a little liberty to get a little protection? I mean, I just read in thethis morning, it was Benjamin Franklin, I think. He says, “If you give up some liberty for some protection, you are neither free nor protected.”
