Dr. Anthony Fauci, the White House Coronavirus Task Force member and Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, made his first late-night appearance on Trevor Noah'sThursday night where they discussed the latest developments in the coronavirus pandemic.
As for the concerns about receiving packages from online stores such as Amazon or wiping down grocery store items, Fauci emphasized that he doesn't think everyone needs to "get completely obsessed about packages that come in." "Those types of surfaces, the virus might live there for a very short time. I wouldn't worry about that. It's more [about] the close things, the hand washing.
"You can get infected with relatively few symptoms, either symptomatic or mild, relatively trivial symptoms, but then you can infect another person, who would then infect a vulnerable person." When Noah asked what Fauci would consider his "biggest warning" when it comes to citizens trying to self-medicate, the doctor strongly stated that "right now, today as we speak there is no proven safe ineffective direct therapy for coronavirus disease for sure."
"We're pushing to try to get as many good clinical trials as possible to prove if it works. If it does then get it out there really fast for everybody," he added.
