Its very clear in virality. a virus will not mutates, unless you allow it to. replicate whatever you can do, to prevent it from spreading. even though vaccines are not perfect, they are extraordinarily powerful tool in preventing the spread, within the community. the more you prevent the spread, the less likely that the virus will mutate. this brings up another important point. when people say, im healthy, the chances of my getting seriously ill is very very low. so why do i need to worry about ...

Under vaccinated states. if you look at louisiana, florida, texas, states like that, mostly in the southern area. if you look at the dynamics of the virus there it really is surging extremely, acutely with an inflection curve that is if you look at the total country, weve had well over 100,000 cases a day for the last several days. that is really, really a problem. we have 93 million people in this country who are eligible to be vaccinated, who are not vaccinated. and this, as we said so many ti...

>> dr. fauci, youve been looking every minute of every day at this disease for coming up on two years, itll be this fall. as you look now at where we are in this moment, headed into the fall, heading into school season, you look at the vaccination rate. if we kind of bump along the way were going, maybe a few more people do get vaccinated after fda approval but if we stay broadly where we are, how long are we in this? how long does it go? >> you cant predict it. that gets to the issue of one of ...

Have refused to get a shot, even though they are eligible, that gives the virus a fabulous opportunity to change and mutate into something even worse. as the virus moves unabated from person to person to person, the virus is like wow, this is amazing, look at all this time and opportunity i have to learn how to change to be faster and stronger. and then you get variants that could be even worse. the only way to solve this is to get people vaccinated. speaking to the people he who are unvaccinate...

Go forever with no symptoms. we are capable as a nation to have a highly effective vaccine, more than we even are using. so lets utilize that. because there are people in the world who would do anything to get vaccinated. and yet we have the tool to do it. so we owe it to ourselves and we owe it to them to get that done. >> the virus keeps adapting. could we imagine or are we likely to see another variant perhaps more transmissible or more difficult to deal with than delta if delta is conquered?...

If you give them the opportunity to spread, you are giving them ample room to mutate. now, not every mutation is going to wind up being functionally important. but if you let it mutate enough, sooner or later you may get a constellation of mutations that would lead to a variant that might evade the vaccine much more than the current delta is evading. it might be as replication competent, but even more serious, which gets back again, fareed, to the recurring theme. you can prevent that from happe...

Replicate. if you give them the opportunity to spread, you are giving them ample room to mutate. now not every mutation is going to wind up being functionally important, but if you let it mutate enough, sooner or later, you may get a constellation of mutations that will lead to variant that might evade the vaccine much more than the current delta is evading. it might be as replication competent but even more serious. which gets back again, fareed, to the recurrent theme. you can prevent that fro...

Choice. i think if you want to be in the school as a teacher and administrator, bus driver, you must get vaccinated. it will take a lot more work to do this in this microhyper local fashion. the mandates will have to come if we have any chance of getting this pandemic under control. >> when im hearing people like tom tell me this morning and dr. fauci tell chuck todd that by next month well be looking at 200,000 daily cases and their biggest fear, what keeps them up is this virus continues to re...

Get the vaccine after having covid, for example, last year from one of the older strains like the uk strain, for example. you may have protection against that strain but that doesnt mean you are 100% protected against other variants like delta which is why we are seeing some breakthrough. jackie: speaking of these variants, you touched on this earlier but i want to drill down on this, how does this unchecked spread enable the virus to further mutate, what challenge pose to efficacy. dr. fauci sa...
