Speaking on a radio program on Thursday, Trump said in response to a question that "I am convinced that the United States will develop a corona vaccine before the November presidential election," the news agency reported.
"I hope that the experts will develop the vaccine before November," he said. According to US media reports, giving a date for the corona vaccine is a positive sign because Trump believes that experts have achieved a great deal on the vaccine issue.
"The corona vaccine will be ready before the end of this year," Trump said. Asked if the vaccine could be ready before November 3, Trump said, "I think it should be ready before then."
It is to be noted that more than 200 pharmaceutical companies of the world are engaged in the development of vaccines to defeat the corona virus. More than twenty companies participating in this race have completed the phase of testing the vaccine on humans.
Earlier, the US president had vowed that the corona vaccine would be ready by the end of this year.
On the other hand, experts from the World Health Organization (WHO) have made it clear that even if a company develops a vaccine, it cannot be approved before July next year.
