Public health experts and scientists insist that the government's "warp speed" initiative is not resulting in corners being cut and producing the vaccine rapidly.
Fauci: FDA "...not cutting corners...". But working in an expedited fashion.
Under Operation Warp Speed, vaccines are being produced now with government support as testing proceeds.

Thank you for the article.
I am hopeful that this effort may benefit humanity in more ways in the future. Surely, corona virus is not the last serious disease that will spring up and threaten people.
Years ago, a young man from South Africa decided that rockets and space travel were too expensive, and there had to be a cheaper way to transport people and things into space. So, he built the world's first reusable rocket booster. He used nine rocket engines in the first stage, despite the fact the experts said that created too many points of failure. He used innovative technology to make certain parts of it. He developed new methods to test, fix, and test again. Most of all he did not listen to all the
long time experts who pooh-poohed the idea. Recently, while the
old-guard company is still struggling to run their first successful unmanned test, his company put two men into space and returned them safely to Earth. Did I mention the
old-guard company got a billion dollars more from the Feds to do the same thing?
My point is that these new methods of developing a vaccine may prove to be the biggest chunk of silver lining to come out of this mess. It has the potential to save a lot more lives in the future, even if it doesn't do that much for CV19 victims.
) Actually my wife has health issues too and that is one of the main reasons I'd like to be vaccinated ASAP... Just something else "I don't want to bring home!"
