Trump: Vaccine Could Be Here by December

From the story: “I think we’ll have a vaccine by the end of the year,” Trump told the moderators, Fox News’ Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, saying he was “very confident” in the assessment. “We’ll have a vaccine much sooner rather than later” (Fox News).  

From a story on Remdesivir: While the data for remdesivir looks promising, and hydroxychloroquine less so, experts warn data so far is limited, and right now there’s no silver bullet cure for COVID-19. “In this pandemic, the field is changing rapidly. What we know now is changing from what we knew three months ago — most fields don’t change that rapidly,” said Dr. Neera Ahuja, division chief of hospital medicine at the Stanford School of Medicine. “We have to keep reevaluating as we go along. What drug looks good right now might not be the best looking one in two weeks” (ABC News).
