Tony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, says as of today there were 712 cases of coronavirus and 27 deaths. He adds: It’s “guaranteed” that number will go up by tonight and tomorrow there will be “several more.”
Fauci also said Americans, including those in areas with no coronavirus cases, should be preparing now for what is coming. “Sorry to say. Sad to say. They will (come),” he says.
He also said, “We want to be where the infection is going to be as well as where it is.”

Asked by @ayesharascoe about whether schools should be closing and whether the U.S. is 10 days away from a major crisis point as Tom Bossert, former Trump homeland security advisor suggested in a WaPo op-ed, Fauci said the U.S. shouldn’t “overshoot” or overreact at this time.
