Dr Anthony Fauci, who is the top medical advisor of Joe Biden's administration, has now declared that the U.S. is out of the Covid-19 pandemic phase as the number of people being hospitalized and cases associated with Covid-19 disease has seen a sharp fall.
On Tuesday, Dr Fauci also announced that "Currently we don't have thousands of deaths and tens of thousands of hospitalization and nor we have 9,00,000 plus new cases every day thus we as a country in real sense are now out of Covid-19 pandemic phase."
Along with that, Dr Fauci said, "Looking over the situation of the entire world, there is no doubt that Covid-19 isn't completely gone, and it is definitely going to stay for long."
Dr Fauci further said, "We will continue our long term vaccination program to ensure that pandemic doesn't strike back again and each and every U.S. citizen is safe from Covid-19."
These comments and announcements from chief medical advisor Dr Fauci came after the average of daily infections dropped down to 54,840 compared to 8,00,000 cases during the peak timeframe, which is a significant fall of about 94%.
Earlier this month, the restriction in force by the federal government to compulsory wear masks during commercial flights and public transit was dismissed by a federal judge as the number of cases dropped.
In February, the U.S. CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) had also revised their guidelines, saying that "From now on, masks are only recommended at large public gatherings. The indoor masking rules only apply to communities who are at high risk of having Covid-19."
Experts believe that there has been a sharp fall in Covid-19 cases since January, mainly due to two reasons. One of them is that new varients of Covid-19 are less severe than those that have preceded them and another is rising immunity among the population of U.S.
There is also a sharp decline in the number of deaths due to Covid-19 in the U.S. compared to the last 363 days, as it has dropped about 14%.
