COVID-19 vaccine could be ready in 12-18 months: US top scientist Fauci

The race is on to develop a vaccine against COVID-19.
At least 70 potential treatments are in development, with three at the clinical stage when human trials begin.
Outside China, the US is the only other country undertaking human testing.
America's top medical expert Anthony Fauci has said a vaccine could be ready within 12 to 18 months.
But health officials elsewhere say it could take even longer, as others warn against rushing the process.
John Nicholls is the clinical professor of pathology at the University of Hong Kong.
His team was one of the first outside mainland China to reproduce COVID-19 in a laboratory for research.
He joins us on Skype from Hong Kong.

Please don't panic. Experience tells me that everything that comes from China don't last long.

[suhailsali]

Last three month we are listening the same thing at least minus last three month and make 15 month count, or media please shut your mouth once it ready then announce

[nybrand]

He is not a top scientist. He is a lobbyist.

[rasronin]

They can keep it. Only idiots get those anyway.

[emmanuelochieke]

The coronavirus vaccines could be ready in 18 months or perhaps more. So, how did the Chinese treat their patients to extent that they now claim they have defeated the virus?

[k.ravibabuabraham]

We Praying that helps comes from heaven 💐

[julajimjavier]

Good but its too long to wait😕

How can we recover it? People are suffering and dying so fast.!

[mohedelmi]

[jnorth]

People will not take it, I don’t know who they are making it for

[mirzaalam]

[majinbuu]

We might not even make it that long! “ But that’s just reality.

[fidelcatsro]

my Siamese cat scientist says
Hydroxychloroquine + zinc will do the job

[as_khan_]

It is long too. Hope could get it faster

[joemeyer]

Clinical trial of HCQ+Zinc in two months, but there’s no money in a Cure!

[dianneboynton]

There's already s patent for the covid 19

[murphyfx]

12 to 18 months? Are you people kidding me

[dr-syfs]

A treatment that is 99, 62% effective when taken early ALREADY EXISTS, its Hydroxychloroquine with Azithromycin/zpack (zink may also help). ALL media that are not covering this should be considered to be criminally Corrupt Propaganda. Theres no point in taking a vaccine for virus like these.

And we have also been LIED to about the danger of covid19, it is LESS dangerous than seasonal flu and the data we are given is a FRAUD. The total seasonal death for 2020 will be Much Lower than 2017 for all regions and countries that do not commit fraud.
