Fauci made the bleak prediction as new coronavirus cases surged 46 per cent amid new outbreaks in the south and west. 'We are now having 40-plus thousand new cases a day,' Fauci told a Senate Committee during testimony. 'There's no doubt that wearing masks protects you and gets you to be protected,' he said.

'States that were recalcitrant ... are doing a 180, and you have the same states now wearing masks,' Cuomo said.
