Early tests show that a coronavirus vaccine from drugmakers Pfizer and BioNTech could be 90 percent effective at preventing COVID-19, a disease that has now infected more than 10 million Americans and killed more than a million.

Other challenges include convincing enough Americans to take the vaccine amid a climate of distrust and misinformation. Meanwhile, other drugmakers are also pushing to bring vaccines to the market. We’ll talk about the status of a coronavirus vaccine.
