“We are likely going to have maybe tens of millions of doses in the early part of year. But as we get into 2021, the manufacturers tell us that they will have hundreds of millions and likely a billion doses by the end of 2021. So I think the process is moving along at a pretty favorable pace.”
“I’m cautiously optimistic, though you can never guarantee things with a vaccine. I’m cautiously optimistic that we will have a vaccine that’s effective enough to get approved, because the early studies in the Phase One study showed that it induced the kind of neutralizing antibodies that were at least comparable, if not better than what you see in convalescent serum. And that’s a whole mark of a predictive quality that a vaccine might work.
“Historically, if you get a vaccine that has a moderate to high degree of efficacy, and you combine with that prudent public health measures, we can put this behind us. I don’t think we’re going to eradicate this from the planet ... because it’s such a highly transmissible virus that that seems unlikely.
“But what I think we can do with a combination of a good vaccine and attention to public health measures - and by attention I don’t mean shutdown, I mean things that are just prudent - then I think we can get this behind us. We may need to go through a season of it, and then by the next season if we have a vaccine it won’t be a pandemic, it won’t be immobilizing the world, it won’t be destroying the economy.

Al Drago/Pool via REUTERS/File Photo“You don’t need to either shut down completely or let it rip, as I say. There is a middle ground where you can prudently open. So I think the misperception amongst some is that either you’re going to shut us down completely, or we’re going to do whatever we want.
Fauci is so wrong! Masks don't prevent covid 19 so how are goggles going to do anything. President Trump took early action to help curb the spread of the virus from other countries to the United States, providing important time for response and preparations.
WHAT HAPPENED TO CORONAVIRUS MERS H1N1 SARS1 EBOLA VACCINE IN EARLY 2000'S ?
I promise you, realDonaldTrump will declare a Vaccine found right before the election, while there is no such thing! Stay tuned
This is actually the most realistic and rational I’ve heard Fauci. Almost like he’s done with fearmongering.
What happened to 8 to 12 months from about 4 months ago? Now he's stalking end of 2021. Bunch of bs 'expert' opinions. Covid did not kill the economy, the quarantine did.
Where the goggles 🤔
Fauci aims to clean up with vaccine prospects.
the cure will magically appear after the election, Fauci is a fraud.
Radio: The government is using scare tactics to make us wear a mask. Television: We must all wear a mask. Computer: Doctors say we don't need to wear a mask. Television: Politicians say we must wear a mask. Computer: Scientists say wear a mask. Pentagon: The hell if we know dude.
