It is conceivable that the U.S. could begin to roll out a coronavirus vaccine by December, the White Houses top infectious disease expert said Friday.
Back in January of this year when we started the phase 1 trial, I said it would likely be between a year and 18 months before we would have a vaccine. I think that schedule is still intact, he said in an interview with NPR on Friday. He cautioned that there could be obstacles that throw off the drugs development and that any timeline is never a promise.
I think it is conceivable, if we dont run into things that are, as they say, unanticipated setbacks, that we could have a vaccine that we could be beginning to deploy at the end of this calendar year, December 2020, or into January, 2021, he said on Morning Edition.
Faucis remarks came four days after U.S. biotech company Moderna published some positive data from its phase one human trial on its potential vaccine. The National Institutes of Health has partnered with Moderna to accelerate development of a vaccine.
STAT News doused some of the optimism around the vaccine after reporting that researchers said the released data was incomplete. Fauci described it Friday as partial data.
He said scientists at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, where he serves as director, are compiling the full data for submission to a peer-reviewed journal in a couple of weeks. He said the potential vaccine is on an accelerated pace but added that researchers are not compromising safety or care.

It’s possible that aliens will land in Tampa and kidnap Tom Brady too. Or that 90-year old Clint Eastwood will announce that he’s becoming a woman. Or that the baseball season starts up again and the Pittsburgh Pirates win the World Series.
Anything is POSSIBLE, I guess.
Someone should ask Fauxi how that AIDs vaccine is coming along.
Surprise, he already had one last Oct. The mRNA-1273 vaccine. Amazing coincidence.
RE: Someone should ask Fauxi how that AIDs vaccine is coming along.
They’ve asked him this for nearly 30 years.
If anyone asked Fauci a REAL question he’d fold-up like a three dollar card table.
Rand Paul came closest in the Senate hearing.
Or the (nonexistent) MERS vaccine, or the SARS vaccine, or the common cold vaccine.
Did I hear FAUXI say he’s going hiking this weekend WITH A MASK? Like I’m going to believe him ...
And Mr. Fauci...You can take your vaccine and shove it. This isn't like Polio or Smallpox...it's like the flu...
Partial data....would that be like “anecdotal”.
Well at least it was positive message. .....
Shut up, you croaking Democrat frog. Im sure as soon as Slow Joe is elected , everything will come up roses.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't December AFTER election day?
Coincidence?
Blah! Blah! Blah!! This goof is all over the place. He is in full CYA mode.
Has Fauci written any letters to Hillary lately?
You don't need a mask if you're being tested every day...and I can assure you, he does his own test and tests his family members with his own machine every single day.
Given that clown’s prediction success rate, I’ll not hold my breath - thanks very much.
“This isn’t like Polio or Smallpox...it’s like the flu...”
Klenner treated polio with vitamin C. IIRC, it got people on their feet in days, serious cases in a couple weeks.
I don’t trust the medical estalishment for anything anymore. Especially people like Fauci.
PDJT has definitely TRUMPED them again.
After the beating PDJT took after asking the possibilities of this drug, PDJT went out, had it THOROUGHLY researched and enough DRs at least figured it wouldn’t harm PDJT so the ONLY way that the Antis can ‘win’ is to have PDJT succumb to the virus THEN ‘they’ will be able to say “I told you so”...
PDJT doesn’t even have to say “I told you it would work” because everytime you see him you will know it DIDN’T kill him.
Look for the LIBs to try and say PDJT was taking some Placebo just to boost up his original thought.
PDJT is definitely living ‘rent free’ in a lot of minds.
I think Fauci skipped a lot of the lectures in medical school....many were obviously important ones.
