Dr. Anthony Fauci says more 'pain and suffering' is on the horizon in the U.S. as COVID-19 cases climb again and officials plead with unvaccinated Americans to get their shots.
Dr. Anthony Fauci warned Sunday that more "pain and suffering" is on the horizon in the U.S. as COVID-19 cases climb again and officials plead with unvaccinated Americans to get their shots.
"So we're looking, not, I believe, to lockdown, but we're looking to some pain and suffering in the future because we're seeing the cases go up, which is the reason why we keep saying over and over again, the solution to this is get vaccinated and this would not be happening," Fauci said on ABC's "This Week."
However, people are "getting the message" and more are rolling up their sleeves amid the threat of the delta variant, according to the director of the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Francis Collins said on CNN's "State of the Union" that vaccinations are up 56% in the U.S. in the last two weeks.
