Dr. Anthony Fauci, public face of the White House coronavirus task force, warned states against reopening too soon, stating during a Senate testimony today (May 13, 2020) that doing so before certain "checkpoints" in the federal recovery plan have been met could result in new "outbreaks" down the line, according to the New American website.
"What we have worked out is a guideline framework for how to open America again," said Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) since 1994.
The health administrator was referring to guidelines the White House has released for states and localities to allow businesses to resume their operations.
Among them is the guideline that governments wait to see an uninterrupted decline in coronavirus cases over a two-week period.
