Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday that it will still be necessary to social distance, wear masks and take other COVID-19 precautions after a vaccine becomes available to Americans.
“I would recommend to people to not to abandon all public health measures just because you’ve been vaccinated,” Fauci told CNN anchor Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.”
“Because even though for the general population it might be 90 to 95 percent effective, you don’t necessarily know for you how effective it is.”
The Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases added that once he receives a vaccine, he still won’t feel comfortable completely letting down his guard.
“I can feel more relaxed in essentially not having the stringency that we have right now, but I think abandoning it completely would not be a good idea,” Fauci said.
Dr. Anthony Fauci said there was "nothing to worry about" in late February 2020 in regards to COVID-19 and it was "safe" to do things like go to the movies and the gym.
Short of that, Fauci says skip the masks unless you are contagious, don't worry about catching anything from Chinese products and certainly don't avoid Chinese people or restaurants.
One thing Fauci says will not protect you from getting sick is wearing a face mask.
"I think there's this misperception that wearing a mask, even if you were in an area where there was transmission, is going to absolutely protect you," Fauci said. "A mask is more appropriate for someone who is infected to prevent them from infecting someone else."

"Right now, in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks," said Dr. Anthony Fauci, an immunologist and a public face of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, on CBS’ “60 Minutes” earlier this month. He, like the others, suggested that masks could put users at risk by causing them to touch their face more often.
Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said in an interview this week that he doesn’t regret any comments he made early on in the pandemic that may contradict his message now regarding widespread mask use to curtail the spread of the coronavirus.
During a Feb. 29, 2020, interview, Dr. Fauci said that at that time and under the circumstances pertaining to that date, Americans didn't need to change their behavior patterns.
What's False
However, Fauci did not say there was "nothing to worry about," and although he stated that Americans did not yet need to change their behaviors, he noted that what was then classified as the COVID-19 outbreak could require that to change.

你自己引的篇文中就有写：’Fauci did not say there was "nothing to worry about,"‘ ，而且那“ it was "safe" to do things like go to the movies and the gym” 也不是他自己的原话。
知道你的立场，但是为什么要这样搬石头砸自己的脚呢？

支持“保持社交距离和戴口罩”。一直不是很喜欢西方式的礼节性的拥抱，跟有些出汗多的人握手让我也·有些膈应。戴口罩，别人的口气味道传不到我。我有点小洁癖，但是让自己适应社会习惯，现在这些习惯都免了，很让我喜欢。

同意 Fuz，他确实应有所反思， 我也亲耳听见他在WH briefing 时说他不戴口罩是因为他没有感染，当时我就惊楞了一下，难道口罩不是双向防护吗？如果在早期大家都戴口罩，即使使用自制三层布口罩，情况会像现在这么糟吗？当时加拿大的卫生部长和总医官也是这口气令人们非常愤怒。
这疫苗到底有没有用？觉得福奇不是老科学家而是”老科学的家”???? 以前他说戴口罩没用后来又建议戴。俺虽科盲但一直觉得应该戴
