0:56Now PlayingDr. Anthony Fauci says the Food and Drug Administration is likely to approve an Emergency Use Authorization to Johnson & Johnson for their coronavirus vaccine.
He predicted the public could be receiving the vaccine shots by the middle or end of February.
Fauci made the comments during a virtual appearance at the New York Press Club on Friday.
Johnson & Johnson says its vaccine appears to protect against COVID-19 with just one shot.
It's not as strong as some two-shot rivals but still potentially helpful for a world in dire need of more doses. Results released Friday show the single-shot vaccine was 66% effective overall at preventing moderate to severe illness, and much more protective against the most serious symptoms.
The vaccine worked better in the U.S. compared to South Africa, where it was up against a tougher, mutated virus..
The company says it will file an application for emergency use soon in the U.S., and then abroad.
