Michel: Hope we’ll have 3 or 4 vaccines by 2021

European Council President Charles Michel (pictured) said on Wednesday that “three or four” safe and effective vaccines against coronavirus are likely to be approved by the end of the year or at the beginning of 2021.

In an interview with RTL, Michel noted that the European Union’s leadership doesn’t have a “magic wand” to ensure everybody gets vaccinated straight away, warning that “questions of logistics, conservation and deployment of vaccination campaigns” will arise once vaccines enter circulation.

However, the bloc has “mobilized resources to ensure we are not in chaos once vaccines become available,” the European Council’s head underscored.
