Trump predicts US will have #coronavirus vaccine by year's end

President Trump said Sunday that his administration is confident the United States will have a vaccine for the novel coronavirus by the end of the year.
“We think we are going to have a vaccine by the end of this year,” Trump said during a virtual Fox News town hall Sunday evening.
Trump’s remarks followed news that his administration was pushing agencies to speed up the vaccine development process with a new project called “Operation Warp Speed.” The project’s reported goal is to speed up vaccine development by several months and have 300 million doses of a vaccine available by January.
Trump seemed to acknowledge that his projection was viewed as ambitious, noting that medical experts would advise him against making such a statement.
"The doctors would say, 'Well, you shouldn’t say that.' I'll say what I think," Trump said later, noting that he had met with executives of companies working on vaccine development.
