Countries of the world are struggling to reduce the daily number of cases of infection with the Coronavirus, and many people believe that the vaccine will allow the country to bypass the epidemic, but many researchers believe that the vaccine may not be the effective treatment in the current period.

The director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States of America, Robert Redfield, said: "We already have something more effective than a vaccine against the virus, which are masks," according to the BGR website.

Redfield said about the masks during the Senate Appropriations Committee hearing: "We have clear scientific evidence that they work. The masks are more effective in protecting against Corona than the vaccine."

"These face masks are our most powerful public health tool. I appeal to everyone to wear face masks," Redfield added.

Redfield believes that the vaccine will not be available to the general public before the end of the second or third quarter of 2021, and indicated that the vaccine will be "very limited" at the end of the year, with priority given to people most at risk, according to the "Wall Street Journal."

He added, "To benefit from the vaccine to return to our normal life, the vaccine needs to be available to the general public, and this will most likely be next summer."

He pointed out that destination masks are more effective than vaccines in the current period, and added that the virus can be counted if everyone wears masks, and that this is the reason that some countries in Asia, where wearing masks was common for a long time, were not severely affected by the Corona pandemic.
