Anthony Fauci, President Joe Biden’s former chief medical adviser and one of the country’s top infectious disease experts, on Sunday said there’s “no doubt” the U.S. is experiencing a rise in the spread of COVID-19, but predicted the country is unlikely to be overwhelmed by the virus this coming winter.
In an interview with ABC’s “This Week,” Fauci said while he is monitoring the uptick in cases, he is so far not overly worried.
“There’s no doubt that that is going on,” he said of rising COVID-19 cases. “And since we’re now at the end of the summer, it is likely that that will increase as we get into the fall and the winter. So, we need to be prepared for it.”
Fauci added that given most Americans have COVID-19 antibodies, both through vaccinations and disease-induced immunity, “the chances of this being an overwhelming rush of cases and hospitalizations is probably low.”
