What I find interesting is Trump continuing his contradicting language around a Covid vaccine for every American by April next year, yet the DC Director Dr. Robert Redfield said earlier this week that a vaccine wouldn’t be widely available until the summer or early fall of next year. That’s in line with predictions from public health experts and scientists, who have previously said that most Americans likely won’t get immunized with a coronavirus vaccine until the middle of next year.

WHO says virus ‘is not going away’

A top World Health Organization official said the coronavirus is “not going away,” noting that it’s still killing about 50,000 people a week.

“It has not burned out, it is not burning out, it is not going away,” Mike Ryan, executive director of the WHO’s emergencies program, said, “and especially for those countries entering their winter season in terms of people coming together more indoors.”

“That is not where we want to be,” he added.

Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove, the WHO’s technical lead on the Covid-19 pandemic, noted that global health officials have “literally hundreds” of studies ongoing that examine the extent of coronavirus infection in different populations. The studies indicate that “a majority of the world’s population is susceptible to infection from this virus,” she said. –Berkeley Lovelace Jr., Noah Higgins-Dunn
