U.S. infectious disease guru Fauci reveals Israel’s ‘extremely good’ vaccine driv

“I don’t think we should say we’re near the end,” Fauci said, despite more people getting vaccines every day.

“We are certainly seeing in most countries – in the United States for sure, and also certainly in Israel, perhaps to a greater extent than anywhere else – a sharp decline in day-to-day affairs. the SARS-CoV-2, “” It tells i24NEWS.

“In the United States, the background rate of daily affairs has been so high for such a long time,” he says. “We were getting between 300,000 and up to 400,000 cases a day.”

“We are now down to a weekly average of around 65,000, which is appalling compared to where we were, but appalling when you think about what that means 65,000 new diseases every day,” says Fauci. say.

The 80-year-old Fauci has served seven American presidents and has been the director of the National Institute of Infectious and Infectious Diseases since 1984.

He was invited by the new US President Joe Biden to be the chief medical adviser to his administration and to be at the center of the fight against coronavirus after a rocky spell under former president Donald Trump, who eliminated his conservative scientific approach to the pandemic.

Fauci now advises patience and reason when claiming about protecting those who monitor the vaccines perhaps because of how quickly they were made.

“If they are lazy because they think it went too fast, you have to take time to explain … that distance did not sacrifice safety. And he was not sacrificing scientific integrity, ”he says.

Fauci is slowing the rapid development of the vaccines as “the result of remarkable advances in vaccine platform technology and the development of various immunogens that have occurred over a decade or more.”

“It is absolutely essential to get vaccinated,” he says. “We are at an earlier stage of evolution of change and the more you eradicate virus replication no matter what country in the country. you are the only hope that in the world, there is less chance of change and change. “

Fauci is highly commended for the world’s best vaccination campaign in Israel, which has already received more than half of the eligible population at least one of the two-dose inoculations done by Pfizer or Moderna .

According to Fauci, Israel’s national health care system has contributed to the high level of vaccination.

“You have a health care system that is uniformed and when you want to do something, you just say this is the way we are going to do it and you will do it,” he says.

“And the citizens of Israel, the people there, are used to that, that’s how they’ve been…. Dealing with their health issues for a long time. “

“People listen; they will get the vaccine, ”he says. “And right now I believe you are far up there in the number of vaccines per 100 people somewhere over 80 I think. It’s just great, “unlike the situation in the US, which has” some problems, “he said.
