Bahrain grants emergency use authorization to Valneva's COVID-19 Vaccine VLA2001
This authorization follows a rolling review process with the Bahraini NHRA and reflects the NHRA's initiative to support the authorization of COVID-19 vaccines.
Saint Herblain – Valneva SE, a specialty vaccine company, today announced that the National Health Regulatory Authority (NHRA) of the Kingdom of Bahrain has granted emergency use authorization for Valneva's inactivated, adjuvanted COVID-19 vaccine, VLA2001. This authorization follows a rolling review process with the Bahraini NHRA and reflects the NHRA's initiative to support the authorization of COVID-19 vaccines.
Thomas Lingelbach, Chief Executive Officer of Valneva, commented, "We are extremely pleased with this first authorization and would like to thank the Kingdom of Bahrain for their trust and confidence. We are looking forward to addressing the evolution of the pandemic in the Middle East and starting to deliver our first vaccines in the region. As the only dual-adjuvanted, inactivated COVID-19 vaccine approved in Bahrain, VLA2001 will provide a differentiated vaccine option to the Bahraini population and medical community."
Valneva signed an advance purchase agreement with the Kingdom of Bahrain in December 2021 for the supply of one million doses of VLA2001. The Company expects to deliver the first shipments of VLA2001 to Bahrain at the end of this month.
