Dr Fauci warns that early COVID-19 vaccines will only prevent symptoms from arising - not block infection

Dr Anthony Fauci has cautioned that early COVID-19 vaccines will be focused on preventing symptoms of the virus, not blocking it altogether.

Fauci, the nation's leading expert on infectious diseases, made the point on Monday as at least four vaccine candidates near the end of clinical trials and the US reported a record number of new cases in the last week.

While the end goal of the vaccines will be to eradicate the virus, Fauci noted that developers are aiming for a simpler goal in the first round of jabs.

'The primary thing you want to do is that if people get infected, prevent them from getting sick, and if you prevent them from getting sick, you will ultimately prevent them from getting seriously ill,' Fauci said at Yahoo Finance's All Markets Summit.

'If the vaccine also allows you to prevent initial infection, that would be great. [But] what I would settle for, and all of my colleagues would settle for, is the primary endpoint to prevent clinically recognizable disease.'

Fauci's comments put a damper on America's hopes that forthcoming vaccines will bring the pandemic to its knees, highlighting the ongoing importance of other infection prevention methods like masks and social distancing.

Saw this yesterday. So Fauci was saying we need a vaccine, vaccine, vaccine. Now that Operation Warp Speed is about to pay off and Trump is out pumping vaccines and vaccines are soon to become a reality, Fauci is out there for Biden saying they will work 0%. This man is sickening.

Even if the vaccine works, Fauci wants you to know that it doesnt really work. There will be no end to this. We take our freedom back, or the bureaucrats will rule us forever. https://t.co/KwIUZZNcOc— Buck Sexton (@BuckSexton) October 27, 2020

The newest darling of the anti-American left will, hopefully, be put out of business after 11/3/20... along with a few hundred other, lesser-known unelected leftist swamp creatures.

”See, some Americans aren’t happy unless there is something unfortunate to talk about. ”

That’s the very definition of an American Leftist. They’re the most dour and vicious people on the planet.

There should be a couple of Fauci-Halloween Masks marketed about now. The kids may not know who he is, but they’ll be repulsed anyway.
