Good morning.

As the US approaches the grim milestone of half a million Covid-19 deaths, Dr Anthony Fauci, the country’s top infectious diseases expert, lamented the “historic” and “really horrible” death toll. Speaking on CNN’s State of the Union show on Sunday, Fauci said decades from now people would be talking about this “terribly historic milestone in the history of this country”. He also said it was possible that Americans would be wearing masks into 2022.
