In a tall claim, Donald Trump said that a Coronavirus vaccine is ready and will be coming 'within weeks'. Speaking at the final pre-election U.S presidential debate against Joe Biden, Trump added that the vaccine will be distributed by the military across the US.

"We have a vaccine that's coming, it's ready, it's going to be announced within weeks," Trump as saying.

However, according to news Reuters, Trump further clarified, "It's not a guarantee".

Trump, 74, further said that the vaccine is ready to be delivered. "It will be delivered," he said as quoted by Reuters. He added that companies like Johnson & Johnson, Moderna and Pfizer are doing very well on that front.

“We also have others that we're working on very closely with other countries, in particular, Europe,” he said as quoted by Reuters.
