Dr. Fauci suggests theaters could reopen ‘sometime in the fall’

[BUtterfield 8 41,816]

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the top infectious disease expert in the United States, told performing arts professionals at a virtual conference on Saturday that he believed theaters and other venues could reopen “sometime in the fall of 2021,” depending on the vaccination rollout, and suggested that audiences might still be required to wear masks for some time.

At the conference, held by the Association of Performing Arts Professionals, Fauci sought to assure people in the industry that the end of their acute economic pain was in sight, while emphasizing that the timeline hinged on the country reaching an effective level of herd immunity, which he defined as vaccinating 70% to 85% of the population.

“If everything goes right, this is will occur sometime in the fall of 2021,” Fauci said, “so that by the time we get to the early to mid-fall, you can have people feeling safe performing onstage as well as people in the audience.”

im honestly looking forward to the normalcy of mask wearing (for most people at least) after this pandemic.

i think its very sanitary to wear masks in large public gatherings like a movie theatre, or on public transit, or at a concert too. so many people touching/shouting/laughing/coughing all close together... it's gross if you really think about it. also it should definitely become commonplace in the west to wear a mask when you're sick and have to go out, like the way people do in asian countries to be courteous to others when they have a cold/flu. but in the west we have people hacking on buses with no regard for others

Myself and a couple friends said we'd be fine with wearing masks out forever

I get sick easily and frequently. The sniffles for a friend is several days of bed rest for me. But because mask wearing and cleaning has become normal, I haven't gotten seriously sick in months  it's so nice
