NIH Officials Say Coronavirus Vaccine May Not Be Ready This Year

Written by on October 24, 2020

The director of the NIH is now saying that the COVID-19 vaccine may not be ready until 2021.

During a press conference, Dr. Francis Collins of the National Institute of Health said:

“I’m cautiously optimistic that by the end of 2020, there will be at least one vaccine that has reached that stage of an emergency use authorization but I don’t know that for sure — and it might not happen and it might take longer,”

“It’s a good thing we have this menu of diverse scientific approaches,” Collins said. “If you were betting the whole thing on one vaccine I’d be a lot more worried.”
