Dr. Anthony Fauci has said that he doesn’t expect a potential COVID-19 vaccine mandate for Americans flying domestically in the near future.

“It’s always discussable. We always wind up discussing it,” Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said during an Oct. 10 appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
