UK increases COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing capacity
4 August 2020 - The UK government has signed a new deal with biotech organisation Wockhardt to increase the manufacturing capacity for COVID-19 vaccines.
The UK has entered into an 18-month agreement with Wockhardt to carry out the crucial ‘fill and finish’ stage of the manufacturing process. This includes dispensing the manufactured vaccines substance into vials for distribution.
According to a statement released by the UK government yesterday, this aspect of the manufacturing process is expect to begin in September 2020.
