Does Fauci know what a plateau is?

https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/14/health/us-coronavirus-sunday/index.html

Quote
Even though daily new cases have dropped since January, "over the last couple of weeks, they've plateaued," said the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease.
"When you see a plateau at a level as high as 60,000 cases a day, that is a very vulnerable time to have a surge, to go back up. That's what exactly happened in Europe."

Since cases went back up slightly after the arctic blast, the seven-day moving average has fallen every day since February 25.  That's sixteen consecutive days of a falling seven-day moving average.  The seven-day moving average on February 25 was 71,754.  For March 13 it was 55,486.  That is a 22% drop, not a plateau.

Our nation placed it’s faith in either Trump/Pence/Atlas or Cuomo/Fauci.

Meanwhile, in the real world, we have a vaccine that is enormously effective and it is getting sent out at a pretty good clip and no one in charge is communicating clearly about this thing being almost over.

What a crap show.

He had so many qualifiers. The message should be— if you got the vaccine, raw dog the world. If you didn’t, get it so you can raw dog.

his message is basically correct, you idiots.  the rate of decline in new cases has been declining and it's associated with people relaxing coronavirus avoidance behaviors.  don't relax until you're vaccinated is the right message.

don't be the last person to die of a cured disease.

I understand the message, but it does create some tension in areas where people are anxiously awaiting vaccine eligibility while others might fudge their demographics to grab one early. There’s no perfect approach but I think any message about “we’re not out of the woods yet” should include specific details on how vaccines will be made available to everyone.

it would be great if that information was widely available.

I think he should've been replaced because of the credibility issue around his messaging on masking. I also think what you are saying is right, BUT THAT IS NOT THE MESSAGING! 

I have the vaccine and while I can make individual choices that I wouldn't have previously, the messaging has not been clear at all in terms of what me being vaccinated means.  I understand they want to be a bit cautious, but having really clear societal benefits for those that are vaccinated, then promoting the hell out of it and celebrating a return to normal for those that are vaccinated would do a hell of a lot more than hemming and hawing about whether there might be a handful of asymptomatic cases that get spread by vaccinated people. 

What is Fauci responsible for if not being the public face/messenger of this thing?  He is doing a terrible job.

polls consistently place fauci as one of the most popular/trusted persons in american govt.

yeah, i agree with that, there has been a systemic failure to laud the benefits of vaccination.  the recent communication from the cdc is an improvement but it's still underselling vaccination benefits.

tbf, we still have many, many more people waiting in line for vaccines than vaccines available.  so there's probably still quite a bit of time to transition to better messaging.

Most people are too stupid to understand the deserved criticism that Fauci has received over the years.   They do not understand the gain of function issues, the implications and the fact that Fauci did an end run around U.S. policy regarding that research.    Most American's are also too stupid to fully understand the continual contradictions that Fauci put into the marketplace of policy, ideas and national direction with extreme regularity relative to SARS-Covid-19.

The @sys of the world are too bot like  to comprehend this.

Is the most trusted person in American Govt really a poll? It is wild that you know that stuff off the cuff.

no, not specifically, but a bunch of polls have included fauci among political figures in the last year.


it makes sense that a not explicitly partisan person would outpoll partisan figures, so maybe he's no more trusted than some other random general or something.  but like, if you have a choice of having fauci deliver a health message or a partisan politician, fauci has broader credibility.

i'd kinda be interested in gottlieb's number, but i don't think i've seen him included.  he's probably much less known.
