(Reuters) — Australia is in “active talks” with COVID-19 vaccine maker Moderna Inc (MRNA.O) to establish a domestic manufacturing facility for mRNA vaccines, Health Minister Greg Hunt said on Thursday.
Moderna on Wednesday announced a supply pact with Australia for 25 million doses of its COVID-19 vaccine, of which 10 million doses against the original strain of the virus are to be delivered toward the end of this year.
