Government official: Coronavirus vaccine trial starts Monday

WASHINGTON (AP) — The first participant in a clinical trial for a vaccine to protect against the new coronavirus will receive an experimental dose on Monday, according to a government official.The National Institutes of Health is funding the trial, which is taking place at the Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute in Seattle. The official who disclosed plans for the first participant spoke on condition of anonymity because the move has not been publicly announced.
Public health officials say it will take a year to 18 months to fully validate any potential vaccine.

At this pace, I'm betting on less than a year.

You are betting on less than a year when the very article you cite, and even the snippet you posted, ends with "Public health officials say it will take a year to 18 months to full validate any potential vaccine"? Hmm... which to believe...

That's the typical time frame.

Fauci also said this is the fastest they've ever gotten to testing.

Deductive reasoning is required.
