Vaccination in the United States and Fauci’s skepticism about reducing coronary mortality.
Tehran – Newsweek – Newsweek magazine wrote: Anthony Fauci, a member of the White House Corona Working Group, despite the vaccination of more than half of the American population, expressed strong doubts about the reduction of corona infection and mortality in the coming cold months.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a member of the White House Corona Working Group, said he was skeptical of reducing the number of Covid-19 patients in the winter. .
“Fortunately, now and in the last few weeks, we have seen a decline in the incidence and hospitalization rate in the country,” Fauci told Newsweek. “However, the mortality rate is still high.”
The number of Covid-19 cases in the United States and the hospitalization and death rates have dropped since the recent summer wave. As of Friday, the number of cases has averaged close to 100,000, down 35 percent from early September (mid-September).
“The decline in the number of cases and the declining trend in winter depend a lot on different conditions, which are affected by things like cold weather, indoor work and preventive measures,” Fauci said.
U.S. public health experts predict that epidemics will continue to decline in most parts of the United States as vaccination rates rise. So far in the United States, more than half of the country, 56.7 percent, have been fully vaccinated against the coronavirus, and 65.7 percent have received the first dose.
Most of the deaths from Covid-19 in the United States in recent months have been reported from unvaccinated people. Nearly 68 million eligible Americans are said to have not yet been vaccinated.
In early September (mid-September), US President Joe Biden enacted new vaccine laws that would affect nearly 100 million Americans, about two-thirds of the total US workforce, thus preventing another wave of Covid-19 disease due to the emergence of strains
According to data from Johns Hopkins University, in terms of mortality rate due to Covid-19 in the United States, 2021 was more deadly than 2020. This bitter turning point came after the number of Corona victims in the country exceeded 700,000 last Friday.
According to the latest statistics released to date, more than 45 million 179 thousand people in the United States have been infected with Covid-19, and of these, 733 thousand people have lost their lives.
