Under normal times I would agree.

There is already employer liability protection in the Senate stimulus bill, I wouldn't be surprised to see some sort limited liability clause added for vaccine makers as well.

Also with only 38.9 approval rating of Trumps covid response, and him trailing in the polls I wouldn't be shocked to see him trying to pressure some sort of deliverable around the end of Oct, which is when some of the 3rd phase ends.

EDIT:

From Trump
