US to increase aid to supply coronavirus vaccine

by time news

The White House announced an additional $ 3 billion investment in the coronavirus vaccine and related equipment industry.

The money will allow vaccine manufacturers to expand production capacity and create additional jobs, said Jeff Seinz, White House pandemic coordinator. Previous US financial investments have been directed towards the purchase of equipment and starting materials, which has helped to accelerate the pace of vaccine manufacture. The United States has already sent 130 million doses of the vaccine to 90 countries and has pledged to bring the number to 600 million.

The new money will be sent to US companies, the list of which will be made public in a few weeks. Seinz stressed that priority will be given to manufacturers of lipids, bioreactor bags, intubation devices, needles, syringes and personal protective equipment. “We are doing everything in our power to ensure that everyone – both in our country and around the world – has access to a vaccine, because vaccination is the way to end the pandemic,” added Seinz.
