In an interview with Fox News last Sunday, Dr. Slaoui also predicted that Moderna’s vaccine “is likely to be approved on Friday.” This is the candidate vaccine revealed by Moderna in November, and its effective rate is 94%. Also, according to Moderna’s announcement about the test results, if vaccinators are indeed infected with COVID-19, they will not have severe symptoms of the new corona.
Dr. Slaoui said in an interview that he hopes to “vaccinate 100 million people by the first quarter of 2021, which will be people in long-term care facilities, older people with complications, (and) front-line workers, medical personnel. “. . Dr. Slaoui also predicted that 100 million doses of Moderna’s vaccine will be on the market in the first quarter.
However, when the first batch of new corona vaccines finally appeared, experts like Dr. Slaoui and White House health consultant Dr. Anthony Fauci were particularly concerned about how to get enough people vaccinated so that the vaccine could actually achieve the desired effect. Trick question. A few months ago, the Kaiser Family Foundation conducted a survey along this line of thinking and found that 62% of American adults admitted that they “were concerned that political pressure from the Trump administration would cause the FDA to not guarantee the safety of the new corona vaccine “. If it works, the vaccine is approved quickly. “
“Unfortunately, in the context of the development of these vaccines, there are so many political factors that there is confusion between how thorough the work has been done and the science and the facts,” Dr. Slaoui told Fox News this weekend. “People may think that we take shortcuts or have similar points of view; I can assure you that nothing like this happened, we follow the science.”
