Europe better prepared than ever to ensure COVID vaccine reaches population: Sanofi
Paris: Europe is better prepared than ever to ensure a COVID-19 vaccine reaches the population, Sanofi's chief executive said on Monday.
A few months after taking over at the French drugmaker, Paul Hudson irked French authorities earlier this year after saying the American public was likely to receive vaccine shots first given the U.S. government provided early funding.
The company at swiftly reassured the market that a Sanofi vaccine would be made available to anyone who needs it.
"Now, we are as good and far as we can be. And we can just look at the biology," he said.
Sanofi, which is developing two COVID-19 vaccines, including one with Britain's GlaxoSMithKline, reached an advance purchase agreement with the European Union in September to provide the bloc with 300 million doses.
