WASHINGTON : The coronavirus pandemic will “fade away" even without a vaccine, but researchers are close to developing one anyhow, President Donald Trump said.“We’re very close to a vaccine and we’re very close to therapeutics, really good therapeutics," Trump said Wednesday night in a television interview with Fox News. “But even without that, I don’t even like to talk about that, because it’s fading away, it’s going to fade away, but having a vaccine would be really nice and that’s going to happen."Trump’s comments come as the US continues to see 20,000 new daily cases from a pandemic that so far has killed 117,000 people in the country.
