Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sports This Fall: ‘There’s a way of Doing That’

The entire sports world — save for WWE (?!) — is halted indefinitely amid the coronavirus pandemic. But Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a key figure in the fight against the virus, sees a path to getting sports back in some capacity.

In an interview that aired Wednesday on Snapchat’s show “Good Luck America” he offered up optimism about fall sports — MLB, NFL and college football — saying the path to getting them back centers around surveillance, testing, and no fans.

“There’s a way of doing that: nobody comes to the stadium,” he said.
