Dr. Fauci Warns Don't Go Here Anymore
Despite the fact that COVID-19 cases seem to be on the decline in most parts of the country, health experts are concerned that this trend will quickly reverse with the introduction of the new, more contagious variants of the virus. Therefore, preventing the spread of the virus is still just as important than ever. Over the course of the pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert and the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and Chief Medical Advisor to President Joe Biden, has warned that some places are riskier than others when it comes to potential transmission. Read on to find out four you should avoid—and to ensure your health and the health of others, don't miss these Sure Signs You've Already Had Coronavirus. 1 Avoid Any Indoor Function Since the start of the pandemic, it has been concluded that several superspreader events—situations in which many people were infected at once—have one thing in common: where they take place. "The overwhelming majority of super spreader events are those that occur indoor as opposed to outdoor," Dr. Fauci stated during an interview with the Association of Performing Arts Professionals. He pointed out that the only "responsible" way to host any type of event, ranging from a theater performance to a wedding or other type of celebration, is outdoors "Outdoors are much, much safer than indoors," he said. "I mean, if you're out there with the natural breezes that blow respiratory particles away, it's so much safer." 2 Avoid Indoor Restaurants Since the start of the pandemic, Dr. Fauci has repeatedly warned about indoor congregate settings—especially those involving food and alcohol. Bars, nightclubs, and indoor dinding situations are some of the riskiest, according to Fauci. "When you have restaurants indoors in a situation where you have a high degree of infection in the community [and] you're not wearing masks, that's a problem," Dr. Fauci told MSNBC All In host Chris Hayes in September. 3 Avoid Bars and Nightclubs "Bars are a really important place of spreading of infection, there's no doubt about that," said Dr. Fauci. "Avoid." "If you were to create a petri dish and say, How can we spread this the most? It would be cruise ships, jails and prisons, factories, and it would be bars," Dr. Ogechika Alozie, an infectious disease specialist in El Paso, Texas, told Kaiser Health News.

However, he warns against shared, indoor workout spaces during the pandemic, due to their ability to spread the virus. According to a September CDC report, 7.8% of people who tested positive had been to the gym in the past two weeks, compared to 6.3% of those who tested negative. So how can working out indoors lead to an infection. Fauci explains that exercise involves breathing more heavily and releasing respiratory droplets into the air. This, paired with the fact that gym equipment can be easily contaminated, makes using a shared space all the riskier. 5 How to Get Through This Pandemic Healthy So follow Fauci's fundamentals and help end this surge, no matter where you live—wear a face mask, social distance, avoid large crowds, don't go indoors with people you're not sheltering with (especially in bars), practice good hand hygiene, get vaccinated when it becomes available to you, and to protect your life and the lives of others, don't visit any of these 35 Places You're Most Likely to Catch COVID.
