Dr Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, made the bleak admission on Tuesday. It comes as states across the US continue with their gradual reopening efforts amid widespread protests over the police killing of George Floyd. Dr Fauci said during a virtual appearance at a Biotechnology Innovation Organisation conference: ‘In a period of four months, it has devastated the whole world. And it isn’t over yet.’ As of Tuesday, the number of confirmed Covid-19 cases in the US is heading towards 2,000,000 and more than 111,000 have died, reports MailOnline.

Dr Fauci continued that still so little is known about the virus, how it can be contracted or spread and the specific impact it may have on the human body.

We’re still at the beginning of really understanding.’ The nation’s top coronavirus expert added vaccines will be the only way to completely curb its spread, however he did voice confidence that an antidote would be found soon. Dr Fauci said he’s expecting ‘more than one winner in the vaccine field because we will need vaccines for the entire world — billions and billions of doses’. ‘I’m very heartened by the fact that the industry has stepped to the plate — very much differently than what we saw with SARS,’ Dr Fauci continued, ‘The industry is not stupid — they figured it out. SARS had a degree of transmissibility that it burned itself out with pure public health measures. No way is that going to happen with this virus.’ More: Health Top doctor warns pandemic ‘isn’t over yet’ as number of US cases nears 2,000,000 What Comes Next: Maintaining hobbies from lockdown can help us reclaim our time I am a full time carer for my wife and daughter in lockdown The doctor said Covid-19 shines a ‘bright light’ on the health disparities in the US, warning that as the country begins to rear its head from the public health crisis, resources must be readily available for the most vulnerable communities. Dr Fauci identified African Americans as a particularly vulnerable group, who, because of a number of different factors – including socioeconomic and employment – have been ‘getting hit with a double whammy’ of the virus. ‘[African Americans] have a greater proportion of jobs that don’t allow them to sit in front of a computer and do telework. They’re out there, they’re doing a lot of things physically where you to have interact,’ Fauci said. Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at webnews@metro.co.uk.
