YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe White House is planning a Manhattan Project-style program in an unprecedented bid to make 300 million doses of a coronavirus vaccine by January. "Operation Warp Speed" will pool government, pharmaceutical, and military resources to test the most promising vaccine candidates in animals, then humans. And the best ones would be scaled up from there.
