Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Thursday that he would like to see a nationwide lockdown to help stop the spread of the novel coronavirus in the United States.
Fauci was cautious with his words while speaking with Savannah Guthrie on the Today show, saying that the federal government doesn’t have the authority to issue a nation-wide stay-at-home order, but he agreed that it was a good idea.
Guthrie asked the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases about the states that have avoided issuing a lockdown order so far, and pointed out that some businesses deemed non-essential were open in some areas, enabling the disease to spread.
She asked Fauci if he would like to see a lockdown that extended to the entire country.
