Trump predicts coronavirus vaccine will be ready by end of 2020

President Trump said Sunday that he is ’very confident’ that a COVID-19 vaccine would be ready by the end of 2020. ’We are pushing supply lines. Many companies are, I think, close.’ Trump’s optimistic assessment backs what Fauci had said last month that it was possible that millions of vaccines could be ready by Jan. Global experts, however, have said that a vaccine could take up to 18 months.
