Cuomo likely to ban sale of cigarettes for six weeks, beginning MondayThose close to the Governor argue that temporarily banning combustible cigarette sales during the public health crisis, will mean that ex-smokers’ respiratory systems will make significant recovery at the very same time that COVID-19 cases are peaking in New York.
“This will save lives, and not just the lives of smokers,” the Governor plans to say. “Every former smoker that gets sick, but does not need a ventilator, means one more ventilator is available to keep our aging parents and grandparents alive.”
“Importantly, we must also recognize that failing to temporarily ban combustible cigarettes immediately will cause a disproportionate increase in COVID-19 fatalities in minority communities, given the higher prevalence of immuno-deficiencies in these communities,” he plans to note.
Cuomo believes that the ban will save the lives of many thousands of New Yorkers who do not smoke, because of the increased availability of ventilators for the elderly, those undergoing cancer treatment, those with COPD and chronic respiratory problems, HIV patients, and those with autoimmune diseases — all of whom are more likely to need ventilators to overcome the virus.

From Finger Lakes Times, 3/39/20
(AP) — An upstate New York doughnut shop is featuring the likeness of the doctor leading the country’s battle with coronavirus on its sweet treats.
Donuts Delite in Rochester began selling hundreds of doughnuts with Dr. Anthony Fauci’s face, surrounded by white frosting and topped off
with patriotic sprinkles. The exclusive treats have been selling “like crazy” since the store put them on display Monday, according to Nick Semeraro, franchisee of the café.
The shop’s decision was inspired by the 79-yearold doctor’s straightforward communication style and calm demeanor while he’s been advising millions of Americans amid a pandemic. The infectious disease expert has served as an adviser to every president since Ronald Reagan and President Donald Trump, has coined him as a star on his administration’s coronavirus task force. Therefore, putting Fauci’s face smack down in the middle of a doughnut felt like an obvious choice for Semeraro.
“We’re watching the news like everyone else,” Semeraro told the Democrat & Chronicle on Thursday. “He’s on TV giving us the facts; you’ve got to respect that. We’re bipartisan, we stay neutral, but you’ve got to give credit where credit’s due.” In addition, the shop hopes this new addition to their menu brings “light to a humbling experience,” Semeraro said, and some cheer to customers, “even if it’s just while you’re wolfing down their doughnet.

The timetable for a coronavirus vaccine is 18 months. Experts say that's risky
Eighteen months might sound like a long time, but in vaccine years, it's a blink. That's the long end of the Trump administration's time window for developing a coronavirus vaccine, and some leaders in the field say this is too fast -- and could come at the expense of safety.
The estimated time made headlines last month, when Trump remarked at a televised Cabinet Room meeting with pharmaceutical executives that a vaccine could be ready in "three to four months." There, in front of TV cameras, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), poured cold water on Trump's estimate, saying it would be more like a year to a year and a half.
Ever since, that estimate of 12-18 months has become gospel, its appearance in media stories ubiquitous. But medical experts and scientists with firsthand experience developing vaccines are skeptical.

WATCH: Dr. Anthony Fauci stomps all over Fox & Friends after they challenge him by quoting Dr. OzDr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, slapped down the hosts of “Fox & Friends” on Friday after they challenged his medical opinions by quoting Dr. Oz.
During an interview on the Fox News morning show, co-host Steve Doocy asked Fauci why more doctors in other countries were prescribing hydroxychloroquine to treat coronavirus than doctors in the United States.
Doocy then played a clip of Dr. Mehmet Oz hying up hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for COVID-19, as he claimed that it had produced a “statistically significant improvement in recovery from fever, from cough, and in pneumonia as well.”
Fauci, however, was not buying it.
“That was not a very robust study,” he replied. “It is still possible that there is a beneficial effect, but the study just quoted… that’s not overwhelmingly strong.”
Fauci then flattened Doocy for quoting a survey of doctors in which a little over a third of them “feel” hydroxychloroquine is beneficial in treating the disease.
“We don’t operate on how you feel!” he said. “We operate on what evidence is and data is!”
