VACCINES WON’T WORK UNLESS ENOUGH PEOPLE GET THEM, FAUCI SAYS
Written by Atu on November 17, 2020
Vaccines do not work unless enough people get them, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said recently.
That was a headline that I immediately had to look into, just by the SOUND of it. News is really amazing these days.
There is a challenge ahead, he said, due to hesitancy around getting vaccinated. Outreach needs to be done to make sure that the overwhelming majority of Americans get vaccinated, Fauci said, “because if we have an effective vaccine and 50% of the people don’t take it, you still have a considerable public health challenge.”
Fauci also mentioned people in lower income-jobs, and specific industries hadn’t recovered as much as others and that workers in the services industry might need more help going forward.
A vaccine also does not mean an end of day-to-day obvious health practices such as washing your hands, wearing facial coverings and social distancing, of course.
