Here's why a vaccine will not stop the Covid-19 pandemic right away. This is not a mild pandemic.
"And while vaccine manufacturers, public health experts and the federal government are all confident one or more of the coronavirus vaccines being tested now will be shown to work safely by the end of the year, the US and the world will still be a long way from ending the pandemic."
"But it's not going to be turning a switch off and turning the switch on. It's going to be gradual," Fauci added. "Having" a vaccine does not mean having a vaccine approved, distributed and into the arms of more than 300 million Americans."
"People can't be lulled into a false sense of security by knowing the vaccine is coming," Dr. Marcus Plescia, chief medical officer of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officers, told CNN."
"Plus, the coronavirus vaccine or vaccines will still be experimental, so every person who gets one will need to be tracked to make sure there are no adverse reactions."
