Polls have shown that many Americans are skeptical of a vaccine. In May only half of Americans said they would get one if it becomes available, while a Washington Post survey showed 27% would likely refuse a vaccine.
Guardian: The US is âunlikelyâ to achieve herd immunity to the coronavirus even with a vaccine, according to the countryâs leading public health expert, who warned that a âgeneral anti-science, anti-authority, anti-vaccine feelingâ is likely to thwart vaccination efforts.
In an interview with CNN, Dr Anthony Fauci also said people not wearing masks was âa recipe for disasterâ and said of the Trump administrationâs attempts at contact tracing: âI donât think weâre doing very well.â
The US reported a record number of new coronavirus cases in a single day on Friday, with 36 states reporting a rise in infections and Texas, Florida and Arizona particularly badly hit. With more than 2.5m coronavirus cases and more than 125,000 deaths, the US accounts for about 25% of all coronavirus cases and deaths worldwide.
Countries including the US are scrambling to develop a vaccine, and Fauci has said one could be available by the end of 2020 or early 2021. But he suggested the vaccine would not be fully effective.
âThe best weâve ever done is measles, which is 97% to 98% effective,â Fauci told CNN. âThat would be wonderful if we get there. I donât think we will. I would settle for [a] 70%, 75% effective vaccine.â Read more..

Fauci and Bill Gates settle for a vaccine that is 70% effective as they claim on a so called virus that is 99% survivable. I will pass on the vaccine scam.
