Abstract
More than eight months after the WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic, the number of cases is on the rise, affecting communities all around the country. Three companies, Pfizer, Moderna, and AstraZeneca, have reported promising results for their vaccines' clinical trials in the past weeks. Here I will summarize the status of these vaccines, the FDA approval of treatments for COVID-19, and the current status of cases around the country and in our community.
