Fauci Warns New Variant Could Emerge If Pandemic Not Brought Under Control
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the U.S. is once again averaging over 100,000 new daily COVID-19
cases due to the Delta variant-driven surge, top White House adviser Dr.
Anthony Fauci warned of future variants that could emerge unless more
people get vaccinated.

Dr. Anthony Fauci: "If you give the virus a chance to continue to
change, you're leading to a vulnerability that we might get a worse
variant. And then, that will impact not only the unvaccinated; that will
impact the vaccinated, because that variant could evade the protection
of the vaccine."
