Unlikely that a COVID-19 vaccine will be ready in October, but not impossible, Fauci says - Reuters
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Top U.S. infectious diseases expert Anthony Fauci said on Thursday it is unlikely a COVID-19 vaccine will be ready by the end of October, but that it is not impossible.
“I think most of the people feel it’s going to be November, December,” Fauci said in a CNN interview when asked about the possibility of an earlier release, adding a clinical trial could prompt drug developers to decide a vaccine works sooner. “It is conceivable that you can have it by October, though I don’t think that that’s likely.”

Trump has sidelined Fauci. In a TV interview the other day he stated that it bothered him when Fauci corrected something Trump said about the virus.
