Novavax to Provide 40 Million Doses of Its COVID-19 Vaccine Candidate to Australia
Novavax (NASDAQ: NVAX) announced on Wednesday that it has reached an agreement to provide the Australian government with 40 million doses of its COVID-19 vaccine candidate, NVX-CoV2373, if it earns approval from health regulators. Two early clinical trials of the vaccine candidate were run in Australia, and so far, the results have been positive.
The small biotech has had notable success at finding governmental buyers for its coronavirus vaccine: Novavax has signed direct supply deals with the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada, and through its distribution partnerships has arranged to supply NVX-CoV2373 to Japan, India, and South Korea as well.
