Paul Chaplin, President & Chief Executive Officer of Bavarian Nordic said: “We are pleased to report strong developments for Bavarian Nordic in the first half of 2024. Unfortunately, mpox is once again making global headlines due to the record number of reported cases in Africa. The situation has prompted the African CDC and WHO to declare public health emergencies and Bavarian Nordic is working closely with all stakeholders to ensure equitable access to our mpox vaccine. Importantly, we have built a strong partnership with the Africa Centers of Disease Control (CDC), both to explore supply and to expand our manufacturing network into Africa. We are also working with WHO on a regulatory pathway to ensure access for all countries, while simultaneously seeking approval for use in adolescents and also conducting clinical studies in Africa to further expand use to children. A recent order for MVA-BN was secured from an undisclosed European country, and this was expected as part of the 2024 guidance and as such does not impact remaining vaccine capacity. In response to recent events, the company plans to ramp up vaccine production to ensure continued equitable access to our mpox vaccine. As a result, we have the capacity to produce 10 million doses by the end of 2025, in addition to our current orders, and could deliver up to 2 million doses already this year. Bavarian Nordic stands ready to work with the international community to play our part in protecting and saving lives around the world and containing the latest outbreak.”
