As the world hopes that it will finally get rid of the COVID pandemic in 2022, it seems that we’ll still have some time to wait until we see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the top infectious disease expert in the US, has constantly been informing the world about the evolution of the coronavirus pandemic and how to defend against it. Once again, he’s there to inform us about what’s up next, and unfortunately, it’s not really good news.

Americans should expect a surge in COVID infections this fall

CNN reveals that Dr. Fauci warned about an upcoming COVID surge for the US that’s supposed to arrive this fall. Furthermore, the situation will worsen over the next several weeks, but there is still some positive aspect to it. Compared to how the situation was in the early times of the pandemic, we can expect much fewer cases of infection that require hospitalization this time.

Here’s what the infectious disease expert declared for David Westin from Bloomberg TV, as CNN quotes:

I think we should expect, David, that over the next couple of weeks, we are going to see an uptick in cases — and hopefully there is enough background immunity so that we don’t wind up with a lot of hospitalizations,

Dr. Fauci also said, as the same publication quotes:

I would think that we should expect that we are going to see some increase in cases as you get to the colder weather in the fall,

That’s the reason why the [Food and Drug Administration] and their advisory committee are meeting right now to plan a strategy, and we at the [National Institutes of Health] are doing studies now to determine what the best boost would be.

In the end, we should all admit that remaining cautious is almost always a good idea.
