Trump to appoint 2 vaccine officials
As he ramps up his push to reopen the country, President Donald Trump on Friday will announce two people who will lead his administration's effort to develop a coronavirus vaccine, the White House said Friday morning.
The announcement comes one day after ousted vaccine chief Rick Bright said there are no plans to distribute a vaccine on an equitable scale and called the timeline of 12 to 18 months being presented "an aggressive schedule."
"A lot of optimism is swirling around a 12-to-18-month time frame if everything goes perfectly. We've never seen everything go perfectly," Bright said Thursday before House lawmakers. "I think it's going to take longer than that to do so."
On the House floor Friday, members are practicing social distancing and some are wearing masks to vote on a historic proxy voting measure and $3 trillion coronavirus relief package — the largest relief bill in U.S. history — which includes another round of direct payments to Americans.
