Politically to release a vaccine whose safety and efficacy has not been proven- including moderna.
It is SOP for a drug companies to begin some production of a drug or vaccine ahead of time, production costs pennies. That means nothing as to when it will be released

Moderna also said said maybe ...it will have results of phase 3 by thanksgiving. That is not a vaccine ready for use.
