Dr. Anthony Fauci announced on Wednesday that schools should be able to reopen in the fall. That is certainly good news for parents, although a decent amount of children likely aren’t going to be thrilled. Fauci also noted that the death toll from COVID-19 is likely to be “less” drastic than originally reported. If that is the case, will the mainstream media still hammer away at President Trump for responding poorly to the pandemic? Probably. From The Daily Wire: Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, delivered a healthy dose of optimism this week when he said that schools should reopen in the fall, and that the COVID-19 death tolls are lower than the original estimation. “You know, it is unpredictable, but you can get a feel for it if we start talking about the things where the curve goes down,” Fauci said during the Tuesday task force briefing. “How we respond and what kind of a rebound we see or don’t see, I think is going to have a lot of influence probably more immediately on things like summer camps than it does in the fall.” Fauci continued, “I fully expect – though, I’m humble enough to know that I can’t accurately predict – that by the time we get to the fall that we will have this under control, enough that it certainly will not be the way it is now where people are shutting schools.” He added, “My optimistic side tells me that we’ll be able to renew to a certain extent, but it’s going to be different.

A majority of the people Horowitz talked with said it was a “hard” decision, but opted for a more damaging, deadly pandemic just so long as Trump is defeated in November.
