Lagarde: Vaccine Will Not Change Our Projections

The President of the European Central Bank (ECB), Christine Lagarde, said on Tuesday that an effective Coronavirus vaccine will not change the bank’s economic projections.

“I’m not sure that is going to be a major game-changer for our forecasts, simply because what we had anticipated in our baseline was that at some stage in the first half of 2021 there would be a vaccine and that it would be rolled out in the course of 2021.”
