0:00.0 | Sup you beautiful bastards. Hope you've been a fantastic Friday, which is a thing I have not said for a very long time. |
0:05.5 | Because I hate Fridays, no. In case you're wondering why you got this video, because you miss my Monday announcement. |
0:10.0 | Like I said, Monday, especially as we're all dealing with this coronavirus situation, we've got a new schedule. |
0:14.0 | So you know, an uncertain future but silver lining, more of my dumb face and voice. But today, while I have you, I wanted to cover something that I've gotten a lot of questions about, |
0:21.6 | and that is a vaccine for the coronavirus. |
0:24.6 | So far, the Food and Drug Administration has not approved |
0:26.6 | any vaccine for the virus known as SARS-Cove 2. |
0:28.6 | And so, you know, you have a lot of people asking, |
0:30.6 | how far away is a vaccine? Why does it take so long? |
0:33.6 | What does it look like? And of course, who is making it? Okay, so first thing to note, there are tons of different vaccines in the works around the world right now. And each of these |

0:55.4 | They currently believe that it's going to take about a year and a half to put any vaccine on the market. |
0:59.5 | Though there are a handful of optimistic researchers hoping to have something ready in a year. |
1:03.3 | You said recently that you could have some kind of vaccine within a year or so. |
1:08.7 | How do you speed up that timeline and how do you fix the problem |
1:11.7 | you said you have, which is finding a manufacturer? Right. Well, first of all, Margaret, that one-year |
1:15.6 | timeline would be the world's indoor record of ever getting a vaccine out, at least to be able |
1:21.6 | to early deploy. You can't do any better than that. If you go any faster, you'd be cutting |
1:26.3 | dangerous corners. Well, that may seem like a long time away, the development of several COVID-19 vaccines are actually moving at record speed. |
1:33.3 | All right, but let's talk about one of the vaccines shooting to be the first on the market. |
