Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, has suggested that the United States may begin relaxing stay-at-home orders as early as next month amid the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic.

Fauci told CNN’s “State of the Union“ on April 12 that there are signs the outbreak ”not only has flattened, it’s starting to turn the corner“ and that the country could open ”in some ways“ in May, noting that there is a ”need to try and get back to normal.”
