FAUCI Promotes Remdesivir live on CNN, page-5

Promoting vaccines too:

"In his opening remarks, Fauci said he was "cautiously optimistic" about the progress that has been made toward developing a vaccine for COVID-19, which he said will likely be the "nail in the coffin" needed to end the coronavirus pandemic. Fauci said there were a number of promising vaccines in development and that it's about "when and not if" they get positive results. He reiterated his hope that a vaccine could be made available by the end of 2020 or early 2021.

One reason he is optimistic a vaccine could be developed in record time is that companies are producing them "at risk." He explained that does not mean risking safety or effectiveness, but rather money because companies are moving forward with mass production before completing clinical trials. That way they can immediately distribute a large number of doses if a vaccine is approved, though they risk wasting millions if they manufacture a vaccine that does not prove safe or effective."
