Cat got his tongue? SILENCE from da big cheese vis a vis the dire warnings from Fauci? Is da big cheese afraid to speak? Who muzzled him?

That is because the warnings were not dire.  They said we should be ready when/if there are any outbreaks.  

That schools should reopen in the fall after taking in the data from testing for the area.

Sen Alexander:   ............Am I right, Dr. Fauci? You didn’t say you shouldn’t go back to school because we won’t have a vaccine by the fall?

Dr. Anthony Fauci: (03:25:05)
No, absolutely not Mr. Chairman. What I was referring to is that going back to school would be more in the realm of knowing the landscape of infection with regard to testing. And as Admiral Giroir said, it would depend on the dynamics of the outbreak in the region where the school is. But I did not mean to imply at all, any relationship between the availability of a vaccine and treatment and our ability to go back to school. You’re quite correct.
