CDC director says Covid-19 vaccine for general public likely to be available in late 2021
“If you’re asking me when is it going to be generally available to the American public, so we can begin to take advantage of vaccine to get back to our regular life, I think we’re probably looking at third, late second quarter, third quarter 2021.”
Redfield said that he thought the vaccination would begin in November and December “and then will pick up, and it will be in a prioritized way. It will be those first responders and those at greatest risk for death, and then eventually that will expand.”
CDC says U.S. should have enough coronavirus vaccine to return to 'regular life' by third quarter of 2021
