US Chief Infectious Disease Officer: States Don't Need AstraZeneca Vaccine

Anthony Fauci, director of the US National Institute of Allergic and Infectious Diseases, believes the United States can do without the coronavirus vaccine developed by the British-Swedish company AstraZeneca.

According to the chief American infectious disease specialist, there are enough other drugs in the country to prevent COVID-19, reports Reuters.

“This question is still in limbo. I have a general feeling that, given the contractual relationship that we have with a number of companies, we have enough vaccines to cover all our needs without the use of AstraZeneca ”, – quotes the publication of the words of Anthony Fauci.

We will remind, as the website kp.ru wrote, in mid-March it was reported that the United States could approve the use of this vaccine in a month, if American experts come to the conclusion that the drug is safe and effective. Today, Americans are vaccinated against COVID-19 with three vaccines from Pfizer and BioNTech, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson.
