Moderna's clinical trial numbers show there's 'no way' Trump can have a vaccine by Election Day


(CNN) Contrary to his predictions, President Trump won't have a coronavirus vaccine ready by Election Day, vaccine experts tell CNN after reviewing data from Moderna, the first company to begin its Phase 3 clinical trials of a coronavirus vaccine in the United States. There's just no way," said Dr. Peter Hotez, a vaccinologist at Baylor College of Medicine and a CNN medical analyst. Last week President Trump said he was "optimistic" a vaccine would be ready around Election Day on November 3. "That takes you past Election Day," Offit said. Both Offit and Hotez predict there will be results from the Moderna study in the first quarter of 2021 at the earliest.
