COVID Vaccinations May Start as Soon as Dec.11; US Expected to Return to Normalcy in May 2021

The chief scientific adviser of Pfizer's new COVID-19 vaccine said today (November 22, 2020) that Americans may receive the vaccine from December 11, and the country's immunization rate could climb high enough to allow for a return to normalcy by May 2021, according to the RT website. 


The FDA vaccine advisory committee is scheduled to meet on December 10 and may grant Pfizer's request for emergency  use authorization that day, Dr. Moncef Slaoui said today. 


The Trump administration stands ready to ship the vaccine to immunization sites in all 50 states within 24 hours, so recipients would receive the first doses on December 11. 


The administration plans to deliver 20 million doses in December and around 30 million each month thereafter at no charge to recipients.
