Gates gave his own ideas on when life will start to resume again, and what he plans to do in the meantime.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>He acknowledged his vaccination during an interview on Clubhouse, the new social media connection app, where he was interviewed by Andrew Ross Sorkin, who is the co-anchor of CNBC\u2019s \u201cSquawk Box.\u201d According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/02\/26\/bill-gates-on-when-well-stop-wearing-masks-clubhouse-interview.html\">CNBC<\/a> reporting, Gates made it a point to say that he will still be adhering to social distancing protocols and wearing a mask.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to set a good example,\u201d Gates told Sorkin on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VQFNb93q3CI\">Clubhouse<\/a>. \u201cIf you\u2019re vaccinated, you can still transmit.\u201d He said that the act of wearing masks \u201cisn\u2019t some huge disastrous thing,\u201d saying, \u201cI\u2019m not going to stop wearing masks or being careful, particularly around older people who haven\u2019t been vaccinated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gates added his own predictions about when life will return to normal.\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s only by late spring or summer that we\u2019re going to get to numbers where you can look at changing your behavior in a significant way,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Gates\u2019 comments come at a time when updates from the White House have been confusing to some. On CNN\u2019s \u201cState of the Union\u201d last weekend, Dr. Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said that there will be forthcoming recommendations on social distancing requirements once more people are vaccinated, but as of now, there is no strict guidance.<\/p>\n<p>CNN Host Dana Bash asked Fauci about vaccines and social-distancing requirements. She asked about her own parents, who have been vaccinated. \u201cDoes that mean it\u2019s okay for them to spend time with their grandchildren, who obviously have not been vaccinated?\u201d she asked. \u201cWhat\u2019s your recommendation?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/dr-fauci-doesnt-answer-if-vaccinated-grandparents-can-see-grandkids\">The Daily Wire<\/a> reported:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Dr. Fauci responded, saying he was not going to make a recommendation at this time, but that \u201cthere will be recommendations coming out. I don\u2019t want to be making a recommendation now on public TV,\u201d he said. \u201cI would want to sit down with the team, take a look at that.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>However, Fauci confirmed this week that two people should be able to socialize if both are vaccinated, adding that common sense should be used.<\/p>\n<p>As reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/fauci-says-despite-lack-of-data-vaccinated-people-can-get-together\">The Daily Wire<\/a>, on Thursday, Fauci said, \u201c\u2018even though it isn\u2019t backed by data,\u2019 if two vaccinated people want to get together, they can, \u2018though the risk is not zero.\u2019 He added, \u2018My professional judgment is that when my daughter wants to come in here and she\u2019s doubly-vaccinated, I\u2019m going to have her over the house, and I\u2019m going to give her a big hug that I haven\u2019t been able to do for a year. So, I mean, you got to use some common sense.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fauci went on to say, \u201cWhat we\u2019re saying right now, even though it isn\u2019t backed by data, it\u2019s backed by common sense that if you have two vaccinated people, and they want to get together, be they family members, or friends that you know, are vaccinated, you can start getting, as individual people, even though the risk is not zero.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to tracking by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/health-shots\/2021\/01\/28\/960901166\/how-is-the-covid-19-vaccination-campaign-going-in-your-state\">NPR<\/a>, 13.9% of the United States\u2019 population has currently received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.<\/p>\n<p><em><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
