President Donald Trump unveiled plans to find a coronavirus vaccine by the end of the year, in a government initiative dubbed "Operation Warp Speed" which he compared to the Manhattan Project, a research effort during World War II that produced the first nuclear weapons.
Speaking at a press conference in the White House Rose Garden on Friday, Trump said the initiative’s title "means big and it means fast" and said the military had been called upon to help health officials make preparations for the vaccine.
