During a recent interview, Dr. Anthony Fauci suggested that families should consider having a vaccine requirement in their own homes for the holidays.
Fauci made the comment during an interview with the Washington Post, where he encouraged families to ask holiday guests about their vaccination status before celebrating indoors.
“When you get vaccinated, and you have a vaccinated group, and you are in an indoor setting, you can enjoy, as we have traditionally over the years, dinners and gatherings within the home with people who are vaccinated,” he explained.
“And that’s the reason why people should, if they invite people over their home, essentially ask and maybe require that people show evidence that they are vaccinated, or give their honest and good faith word that they have been vaccinated,” he added.
Fauci continued to reference data showing that people who are vaccinated are less likely to face hospitalization or death if the contact COVID.
There is a building fear over the omicron variant and winter surges, but over 99% of COVID cases are from the delta variant.
When discussing the unvaccinated, Fauci said “There’s no doubt they have a much higher degree of infection, a much higher degree of hospitalization, and a much higher degree of death”.
It seems like Fauci always finds another reason for Americans to prolong returning to normal, even with those that are vaccinated.
