White House COVID-19 adviser Anthony Fauci said the United States is past the “full-blown” COVID-19 pandemic phase as more and more officials suggest an end to mandates and rules.

Speaking with the Financial Times, Fauci said since there is no way to fully eliminate COVID-19, caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, “we are looking at a time when we have enough people vaccinated and enough people with protection from previous infection that the COVID restrictions will soon be a thing of the past.”
