Coronavirus pandemic, Year Two: Here’s what to expect

CNN  

CNN — Our global coronavirus nightmare is entering its second year, and we’re hanging on the best we can. Joe Raedle/Getty Images Some states have said they don’t have enough supplies of the Pfizer vaccine while the manufacturer reported millions of unclaimed doses, adding to the confusion. Even with the delays and questions about who should get the vaccines first, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, Anthony Fauci, is confident a vaccine will be available to most Americans by April. The vaccines won’t fully protect people right away The availability of two vaccines by 2021 is a stunning achievement when you consider we barely understood this virus a year ago. But the vaccine process will take months and it’s still important for everyone to wear masks and social distance until we reach herd immunity – that magical point when so many people are inoculated that the virus has nowhere left to spread.
