US vaccine development progressing well

Despite the fact that on the eve it was announced the suspension of trials of the coronavirus vaccine by several American companies, experts express the opinion that this is a standard procedure and there are no problems.

Yesterday, the head of the US National Institute of Allergic and Infectious Diseases, Etoni Fauci, on live TV channel CNN during a teleconference with the participation of governors said that such a suspension of trials is a precaution. It is important to make sure that the vaccine does not harm people who are participating in the trial. In general, he appreciated the process of creating a vaccine in the United States.

"By November or December, we will have to already know if we have a safe and effective vaccine," Fauci said during a meeting with governors.

It is worth reminding that in total, the US government has invested more than ten billion dollars in projects to create an antiviral vaccine. Investments went to several companies.
