As Florida and other southern states continue to report record numbers of coronavirus cases, Dr. Anthony Fauci said his concern has shifted to states in the Midwest. He called out Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and Tennessee specifically, saying they are showing an “early indication” that cases of COVID-19 are going up.
Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said those states should carefully follow guidelines as they open back up during an interview on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Tuesday.
Some states like Florida, Texas, Arizona and California had a major surge in coronavirus cases, he said, but it looks like cases may be cresting and coming back down.
“What I'm concerned about is … that some of the other states, the Ohios, Indianas, Tennessees, Kentuckys that are starting to have that very early indication that the percent of cases regarding the number of tests that you have, that it's going up,” Fauci said. “That can be a surefire sign you've got to really be careful and you've got to — if you are trying to open up, please do it in a way that's in accordance with the guidelines.”

The areas he is most concerned about are the ones where polling shows Trump catching up with or leading Biden.
I think if Trump fired Fauxchi he would get more votes. Trump is becoming part of the problem if he isn’t part of the solution. Happy he tweeted Dr Immanuel today. Got get ‘Em Donald!
Drop dead Dr. Fraud. Really! Drop dead.
President Trump can’t fire Fauxchi directly, but in this situation he can exert much more control than he has.
I was shocked. My governor has been a total wuss so far. He won’t win a 2nd term.
Get ready for the great Covid case collapse. Ohio daily new cases are dropping already. The other midwest states are not far behind.
Via the protesters. Got keep it going. No coincidence that NC suddenly started reporting increase in COVID and the media hysteria started reporting. The Repubs then decided to go to Florida and Oh wow, Florida started seeing massive increase in COVID especially in Jacksonville.
Should have chose S. Dakota with that great Repub Governor.
I’m from Michigan. They call it part of the midwest, but frankly it’s really part of the northeast.

People with lighter complexions produce more vitamin D.
Hey Fauci STFU! No one in the history of western ciivlization has benn more wrong about more things than you!!
Will somebody please punch that smug little prick square in the face.
At this point he’s just sending signals to the media where to panic mongering next.
I despise Dr. Fraudchi and the horse he didn’t ride in on. There will be a special place in h*ll for the likes of him.
Trump needs to bring Rand Paul to one of his press conferences.
Let it spread. Remember when the goal was to not overwhelm the medical industry? It was never ever the goal to stop the spread.
Kentucky and Tennessee are midwest?
I. Did. Not. Know. That.
***Fauci is a mediocre scientist, and clearly not a clinical MD. He’s in the position he’s in because EVERYTHING in government is political. EVERYTHING, including the NIH. Further, the politics in government is always the same leftist garbage. Why? Because it’s very hard to survive in government unless you are a leftist. Fauci would never have lasted in government bureaucracy since 1984 unless he was an ‘appropriate’ pseudo intellectual leftist.***
I think you said that very well. Fauci and the rest of these medical bureaucrats are nothing but a bunch of pansies. Politics is everything. The actual science is GONE. Long gone!
I have never worried about “cases” per day. They count one single person with CoVid with multiple positive tests as one “case”. They count people with symptoms of CoVid as probable, and guess what? All probables are counted as positive “cases”. They count positive antibody tests (meaning people who have recovered) as new “cases”.
So they are fudging the numbers on “cases” royally.
Real science DOESN’T do this. Only people who have to fake their numbers do this.
Tennessee is for sure the South, and Kentucky straddles both the South and the Midwest, IMHO.
I hope it goes flat here in Indiana. I have a couple of friends that are terrified of CoVid, but way way more who aren’t, and are as tired of this BS as I am.
