SARS-CoV-2, known as COVID-19, first appeared in Wuhan, China. The disease, which was initially predicted to be limited to the People’s Republic of China, spread all over the world between January 2020 and April 2020. While the Ministry of Health announced that the first case in Turkey was detected on March 11, 2020; On April 1, 2020, he announced that the epidemic had spread throughout our country. Currently, the total number of cases in the world is over 200 million.

In the world, which has been struggling with the epidemic for 1.5 years, education, social life, health, housing and many other needs have been interrupted. On the other hand, vaccination studies developed against COVID-19 are seen as the biggest weapon on the way to normalization. So when will this ‘normalization’ take place? Will our lives go back to pre-COVID-19? Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla made a statement on this subject.

Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla also touched on the coronavirus vaccine they produced. Continuing his explanation with the words “We will have vaccines that can last at least 1 year”, Bourla said, “I guess annual vaccination will be necessary. But we have to wait and see the data.”
