Fauci changes tune, now says second COVID-19 wave may never happen —
and mask-wearing is symbolic

   Talk about an abrupt about-face

   Dr. Anthony Fauci now [94]says that a second wave of COVID-19 may not
   even happen and that wearing a mask is largely symbolic at this point.

What about the second wave?

   In a Wednesday interview with CNN's "[95]Newsroom," Fauci — member of
   the White House's coronavirus task force — said that a second COVID-19
   wave is not necessarily inevitable.

   "We often talk about the the possibility of a second wave, or of an
   outbreak when you're reopening," Fauci explained. "We don't have to
   accept that as an inevitability."

   "Particularly," he continued, "when people start thinking about the
   fall. I want people to really appreciate that, it could happen, but it
   is not inevitable."

   Fauci admitted that he is beginning to feel more and more optimistic as
   days go by, and insists that the U.S.'s expanded capability for testing
   is bolstering the COVID-19 response.

   He pointed out that a second wave is entirely preventable if the U.S.
   is able to have the "workforce, the system, and the will to do the
   kinds of things that are the clear and effective identification,
   isolation, and contact tracing."

   In April, however, Fauci insisted that second wave of coronavirus was
   inevitable.

   During an interview with MSNBC, he [96]said, "It's inevitable that the
   coronavirus will return next season. ... When it does, how we handle
   it, will determine our fate."

And so what about the masks?

   Fauci also said that Americans should wear face masks in public to
   protect themselves — but also to get into good practices.

   "I want to protect myself and protect others [by mask-wearing], and
   also because I want to make it be a symbol for people to see that
   that's the kind of thing you should be doing," he added.

   During the interview, the infections diseases expert also admitted that
   wearing a mask is not 100% effective, but says that it is a gesture
   that shows "respect" for other people.
