Dr. Anthony Fauci, America’s foremost infectious disease expert, said on Sunday that the decision by President Donald Trump to extend social distancing guidelines was “wise” and that while it can’t be quantified, the mitigation measures are having an effect. He also commented on numbers he gave on CNN’s State of the Union that the country could see approximately 100,000 deaths was possible, but measures currently being taken could prevent that.
