Fauci: ‘Americans should skip Thanksgiving this year’ | Abroad

“Unfortunately, it is a risk if you meet with visitors from outside the city inside,” said the director of the National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases. “It’s unfortunate because the Thanksgiving family gathering is an important part of the American tradition.”

Fauci said Americans need to be especially careful when family members fall into risk groups. He advised his countrymen to “take the bitter pill and sacrifice that meeting, unless you are very sure that the people you see are not infected.” Fauci, 79, said his own three children are also not coming home for Thanksgiving this year “out of concern for me and my age.”

The immunologist further expressed doubts about claims from President Trump, who claims that 100 million corona vaccines could be available by the end of this year. He said he is confident the president has been cured of Covid-19 and is no longer contagious.

Fauci did warn the public that others of the same age and body weight as Trump should not assume they are doing just as well. “That’s roughly the same as saying someone was going 100 miles an hour and not having an accident, and then I can speed without having an accident,” said Fauci.
