Fauci warned that coronavirus could likely become seasonal

, the nation's top infectious-disease expert, said Sunday that the novel coronavirus could likely become "seasonal" as he emphasized the possibility of a resurgence in the outbreak later this year.

Fauci said on CBS's "Face The Nation" that even if the global number of cases shrinks to a significantly low number, the difficulty in containing the outbreak means it is "unlikely to be completely eradicated from the planet," and the next season could see a second rise of the outbreak. In that case, Fauci said the federal government is "pushing so hard" to improve its preparedness, including developing a vaccine and completing "clinical trials on therapeutic interventions."

"Hopefully, if in fact we do see that resurgence, we will have interventions that we did not have in the beginning of the situation that we're in right now," he said.

It's a concern-may happen. It is an RNA virus with reportedly a lot of antigenic drift-meaning it could require seasonal guestimate of each of the strains & early detection of new strains. Will it be more complicated and imperfect than what we go thru for flu now.

chenweihua Weihua, I came across this story today from CNN. Please read it and share with people in concern.

Fauci also said that we didn't need to worry about this back in January.
