Novavax says Indonesia has given the world’s first emergency use authorization for its COVID-19 vaccine, which uses a different technology than current shots.
Vaccine maker Novavax says its shot is highly effective against COVID-19 and also protects against variants.
In October, it addressed concerns that production of the vaccine had been slowed by a lack of raw materials and other issues, saying it planned to “achieve a capacity of 150 million doses per month by the end of the fourth quarter” through partnerships with Serum Institute of India, SK Bioscience in South Korea and Takeda in Japan, among others.
Indonesia was battered by a deadly wave of COVID-19 fueled by the Delta variant and post-holiday travel from June through August. The number of new cases has now dropped, averaging less than 1,000 a day since mid-October.Why the question of vaccinating younger children against COVID-19 is more complicated than it would initially appear.
