This is going to be the fasted vaccine every developed. There are over 100 possible candidates. Here's another article where a Canadian expert is sayings its months away, not years.

A vaccine is happening, and that is when things are going to go back to normal, including hockey.

The problem I see with believing experts is their skin in the game right now. The business aspect of this is funding and selling their capabilities not just for this vaccine, but for future research. So the question I have when I see them in print media and tv, and knowing the business world, is what is their motivation? I think there's far too much of their skin in this game to be taken as the honest truth (that it's a couple years away from being developed), because they need funding and they really want to push that their firm is on the brink of something special. Who wouldn't want that platform for easy money compared to their normal lobbying for funds? I'm a skeptic in this case I know, but I'm generally very weary of this stuff knowing the way the business world works in talking a big game.
