Update (1155ET): After mostly reiterating comments from his last round of Congressional testimony – he voiced optimism about the possibility of a vaccine by year end, though he’s “concerned” the increase in community spread – Dr. Fauci took his criticism a step further during Tuesday’s testimony, and said he was concerned about the “disturbing surge” in coronavirus infections in Texas, Florida and Arizona seen in recent weeks. The situation in the US is very much a “mixed bag,” he said, and and the next two weeks will be “critical” in the fight against COVID-19.
