JAKARTA - US President Donald Trump expects a coronavirus vaccine to be made available to the entire population in April, amid a choke of new infections from the deadly disease that has pushed the number of daily cases to a record high.
In his first public remarks following his election defeat to Democratic challenger Joe Biden, Trump also said he hoped to authorize emergency use of the Pfizer vaccine soon.
Pfizer said it would report the necessary safety data next week and could then apply for an emergency use authorization.
The remarks came after Trump received an update on Operation Warp Speed, the government's attempt to speed up vaccine development.
Criticism of the government's response to the virus, which has killed more than 235,000 Americans, has become a rallying cry for Democrats ahead of the November 3 general election.
Networks in the US have declared Biden the winner of the presidential election, but Trump, refusing to give up, has launched a series of legal challenges based on unsubstantiated claims of fraud.
On Friday, November 13, Trump appeared to acknowledge the possibility of an impending Biden administration.
"Ideally, we will not carry out a lockdown. I will not go, this administration will not lock down," he said in a speech at the Rose Garden. "Hopefully, whatever happens in the future - who knows which government will happen. I think time will tell," he added.
