Currently there are 21.7 Covid 19 cases and 770 deaths in the world. There are 5.56 million Covid 19 cases and 172,606 deaths in the US. All these figures are still spiking.

Many countries are desperately rushing for approval of Covid 19 vaccine but the phase 3 trial will take some time. Phase 3 trial requires scientists to give the vaccine to thousands of people and wait to see how many become infected, compared with volunteers who received a placebo. These trials can determine if the vaccine protects against the coronavirus. In June, the F.D.A. said that a coronavirus vaccine would have to protect at least 50% of vaccinated people to be considered effective. In addition, Phase 3 trials are large enough to reveal evidence of relatively rare side effects that might be missed in earlier studies. Even if vaccine is finally approved by FDA, the demand for medical gloves will not reduce so suddenly.
