US can get coronavirus levels 'way down' by Election Day in November, Fauci says

The United States has what it takes to get Covid-19 case levels down to more manageable levels by Election Day in November if it uses masks and other "fundamental tenets of infection control" -- but it needs to get serious now, Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN on Thursday.

"We can be way down in November ... if we do things correctly , and if we start right now," Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told CNN's "New Day."

Fauci's roadmap is the same one he's been preaching, including using masks in public, social distancing and washing hands.
