"VISP, Switzerland (Reuters) - Lonza is confident that U.S. and Swiss plants it is building to help make Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine candidate will be ready for commercial production this year, executives at the Swiss company said on Tuesday.
New production lines at Lonza's site in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, aim to start making vaccine ingredients in November, while three lines in Visp, deep in a valley in the Swiss Alps - to supply 300 million vaccine doses annually - should begin delivering by December."
They won't even have any vaccines to sell until early 2021. So you know why they want to keep recruiting and extend the Phase 3. Let's hope Novavax CZ can be up and running at about the same time. Would love to hear an update on the production at Fujifilm as well. Seems like a lot of people in the Government are visiting Fujifilm lately.
