Could Government have produced a covid-19 vaccine and proved its effectiveness in nine months?

Asked by crazyguy (3207points) November 9th, 2020

Cvid-19 surfaced in the US about nine months ago. The covid-19 task force was set up by Trump on January 29, 2020. The first infusion of cash to Pfizer for testing of the mRNA vaccine was made in late July.

According to

“It would also set a record for the shortest time taken to develop an effective vaccine from scratch.”

Do you think a government agency could ever move that fast?
