COVID-19 will probably be a long-term feature of people’s lives

‘There’s a very high likelihood that come winter, we will see an increase in cases’

“And I think it’s quite probable that we will see this virus coming back in different waves over a number of years.”

A fresh spike in cases later this year would still be part of the first wave

“All we have done is suppress the first wave and when you take the brakes off, you would expect it to come back.”

Chris Whitty

Viral circulation, “winter and into next spring”

Professor Jonathan Van-Tam

(England’s deputy chief medical officer)

“The reality is, until we get a vaccine, and only if we get a vaccine that is really capable of suppressing disease levels, will we ever be ‘out of this’

“From that perspective, we may have to live, and learn to live, with this virus in the long-term. Certainly for many months to come, if not years.”

DCD director (Robert Redfield)

Moderna’s candidate has had millions of dollars in backing from Operation Warp Speed

“I feel good about the projected timetable.”

Fauci, “What we’re doing with vaccines, therapeutics, clinical trials is the real substance”
