Dr. Fauci on CBS, on masks: He doesn’t wear one when he has control over an environment, and can keep isolated with a 6-foot distance. But he *would* if he were in a place where he couldn’t control his distance from people. “It’s an adjunct. An additional way to help protect”

Fauci, asked whether hydroxychloroquine works against COVID-19: “The data are really just, at best, suggestive. There are cases that show there may be an effect. There are others to show there’s no effect. So I think in terms of science I don’t think we can definitively say yes.”

CSIS in Washington runs three scenarios for COVID. Best case, it passes quickly and < 240,000 die in the US. Worst case, 5-10 years of hell, millions dead, and by the time it’s over large swaths of the US economy are nationalized https://www.csis.org/analysis/which-covid-19-future-will-we-choose
