“2 Million Vaccine Doses Ready To Go” US President Donald Trump

New Delhi: President Donald Trump on Friday said that the US has already produced two million vaccine doses for the coronavirus disease that are “ready to go” if they “check out for safety”.

“We had a meeting on vaccines yesterday. We are doing incredibly well. We can have some very positive surprises. Tremendous progress is being made on vaccines,” Trump was quoted as saying during a news conference from the White House.

He further added that the “states are doing very well with therapeutics while cures we are working.”

As per a New York Times report, the US administration has selected five companies as the most likely candidates to produce a vaccine for the coronavirus disease. However, the president has not hinted much on which ones have started vaccine production.

Meanwhile, Trump also said that the officials “understand the disease now,” whereas scientists have said they still don’t fully understand key aspects of the virus, including how immune systems respond once someone is exposed to it, as per an NDTV report.
