Pence: Coronavirus Vaccine Will Likely Not Be Ready for This Season

‘ — but we are working very earnestly with multiple researchers to develop a vaccine’

EXCERPT:

PENCE: "Already doing it. Dr. Fauci made us aware couple of days ago that because of the expedited process that the FDA has approved, we're actually going to be able to go to clinical trials in 6 weeks on a vaccine for the coronavirus. As Dr. Fauci said, from the National Institute of Health, he said that's utterly unprecedented. Now, I want your viewers to know that the vaccine will go through the process and will likely not be available for this season, but we are working very earnestly with multiple providers and multiple researchers to develop a vaccine, if — the coronavirus, we will deal with it in this season from prevention, from mitigation, from treatment, but as the next season comes on, if the coronavirus persists, then we are going to continue to work, we are clearing the red tape out of the way. The FDA is providing great leadership on this front to have a vaccine for the American people by next year."
