In his opening remarks to the U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP), Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, said he is “cautiously optimistic” there will be a “safe and effective” vaccine for COVID-19, and that the outcome of vaccine research should be known by the end of the year.

Fauci spoke in some detail about the long-term effects of COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, including in those considered “long-haulers” and those who may have been asymptomatic, as well as the search for a vaccine and the therapeutic treatments for the virus.

Fauci said there are currently three candidate vaccine that have entered into Phase 3 trial with a fourth entering soon. He did caution however, that in the efforts to produce a vaccine there are “no guarantees.”
