COVID-19 vaccine for Americans would ship in 'a matter of weeks', asserts Trump

US President Donald Trump on Friday, during his first public remarks since his defeat by President-elect Joe Biden, said a vaccine for COVID-19 would ship in “a matter of weeks” to vulnerable populations, though the Food and Drug Administration has not yet been asked to grant the necessary emergency approvals. Trump's statement on the availability of coronavirus vaccine comes as the United States sets records for confirmed cases of COVID-19 and as hospitalizations near critical levels and fatalities climb to the highest levels since the spring.
