" I'm still very concerned about the tens of millions of people who are not vaccinated at all because even though many of them are going to get asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic, a fair number of them are going to get severe disease, " Dr Fauci told ABC on Monday .
Officials have also said that The Number of children in hospital is rising.
