I know you are there. Dr. Fauci i am here, judy. Good to be with you. Miss woodruff lets start with the basics. Where are we right now in the country in the battle against covid19. If you are asked for a status report, what would you say . Dr. Fauci i would say it is a mixed bag. The numbers are very serious and very concerning. We have had now over 185,000 death, sixplus million infections. The country, a large country, there are some areas doing very well right now, got hitarly those that badly early on. For instance, the new york metropolitan area has for at least one month now been less than 1 test positivity. In contrast in other parts of the country, particularly what we saw in some of the Southern States that had big surges when they tried to open up the economy, that brought our baseline number of daily infections up from 20,000 a day to as high as 70,000, we are back now to 30000 and 40,000. In those states, they are starting to level off and come down which is a really good s

Infections. If you look at the country at large, there are some areas doing very well right now, particularly those that got hit badly early on. For example, the new york city metropolitan area has four, at least a month, been less than 1 positivity. In contrast in other parts of the country, particularly in some of the Southern States that had big surges when they tried to open the economy, that brought our baseline number of daily infections up from 20,000 a day to as high as 70,000. We are back down between 30,000 and 40,000. Just as those states are starting to level off and come down, which is the good sign, we are starting to see the beginning of surges in places like montana, the dakotas, michigan, minnesota, iowa.

Thats exactly what happened what shocked me, though, the incredible buying in the industrial industrials, retailers and railroads. The last being really surprising in other words, we had a rally in both the covid stocks and recovery stocks when nearly everything goes up, youll hear people its the fed or people betting ochon a stimulus package those explanations miss the mark how do we figure out the driver .

You can look at the numbers and they are very serious and concerning. Deaths,d over 185,000 six plus million infections. If you look at the country, a large heterogeneous country, some areas are doing really very well right now. Particularly those hit badly early on.

In contrast, in other parts of the country, but we saw and some of the Southern States that had big surges where they tried to open up the economy, that brought the baseline number of daily infections up from 20,000 to as high as 70,000.
