Vaccine to be available free to public: Trump
Trump said we are considering making the Corona vaccine available to the public for free. It can be developed by the end of this year. A new campaign called ‘Operation Warp Speed’ has been launched to develop the vaccine. ‘Operation Warp Speed’ is tasked to make the vaccine by the end of this year. So that by January 2021 it can be reached to the people.
He said that the vaccine is expected to be developed by the end of this year. Generally, pharmaceutical companies make a vaccine only after getting all the necessary approvals, which takes a lot of time. Our government will also spend on research and teams developing vaccines. I will also get all the approvals.
