Greg Hunt confirms ‘high interest’ in producing mRNA vaccines onshore
18 April 2021 - Australia is interested in producing a cutting-edge form of vaccines in Australia, after the nation’s rollout was thrown into chaos.
Australia is interested in producing a cutting-edge form of COVID-19 vaccine onshore, but the Health Minister warns it could take the “best part of a year” for manufacturing to begin.
