Moderna says it plans to develop vaccines targeting 15 of the world's most worrisome pathogens by 2025 and will permanently waive its Covid vaccine patents for shots intended for certain low-and middle-income countries
Fifteen viruses are known threats that have not been addressed by many large drugmakers, top Moderna official says.
Moderna announced its strategy ahead of the Global Pandemic Preparedness Summit sponsored by the UK government and the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations , an international coalition set up five years ago to prepare for future disease threats. That has allowed for the development of a vaccine manufacturing plant in Africa backed by the World Health Organisation as part of a pilot project to give poor and middle-income countries the know-how to make Covid-19 vaccines.
Although it will not enforce its patents in these countries, Hoge said Moderna does not intend to share its vaccine technology with the WHO-backed technology transfer hub in South Africa, in spite of lobbying efforts by the organisation.
