2…………> Stocking Up For The Big COVID19 Fight: 300 Mil. Doses

.

Deliveries are expected to start by the end of this year for the European Union purchase of up to 300 million doses of the BioNTech-Pfizer coronavirus vaccine, after it showed strong results in trials, yet EU officials refused to provide details on how the vaccine would be rolled out, insisting that “a number of steps” needed to be followed beforehand, with early data suggesting the vaccine protects more than 90% of people from developing Covid-19 symptoms.

Its developers Pfizer and BioNTech, said it had been tested on 43,500 people with no safety concerns raised, and the companies plan to apply for emergency approval to use it by the end of November – and a limited number of people may get the vaccine this year.

European Health Commissioner Stella Kyriakides described the EU vaccine deal as “extremely important”:

“The agreement means we are a step closer to what we set out to do – to have a broad and solid vaccine portfolio,” she said, adding that it would only be distributed once it is “proven to be safe”.

But Ms. Kyriakides refused to detail a specific timeline for when the vaccine would be delivered to member states.

“It has to receive authorization from the European Medicines Agency,” she said. “A number of steps need to be followed before we will actually be able to have a timeline.”
