Pence says US is maybe 'a week and a half away' from vaccine approval
At a roundtable discussion at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC Director Robert Redfield said he's "optimistic that the FDA will get authorized vaccines within the next several weeks and distribution work can begin."
Vice President Mike Pence, who joined him at the meeting, added, “We are maybe, Bob, just a week and a half away from what will be the likely approval of the first coronavirus vaccine."
Pence added, "Within 48 hours from the FDA approval, we could be vaccinating people literally in all 50 states and territories all across the country."
Pence said that a vaccine won't likely be available for every American until "spring or early summer."
