Information about the project
Fosun Pharma has the exclusive distribution right in Greater China and has provided important clinical resources for the BNT vaccine in the early stage of research and development. If a company is interested in the vaccine for its Chinese employees, it will be necessary to contact Fosun directly. In the event that the request exceeds one thousand units, it will be necessary to sign a letter of intent to plan the pre-orders and give priority to that company. Priority planning will still be coordinated for centralized vaccination needs, given that vaccines have production limitations in their initial phase.
Fosun Pharma has started a deep collaboration with BioNTech Germany since March 2020 in clinical research, product registration and vaccine product development focused on COVID-19 mRNA technology in the Greater China region (including Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau). On November 18, BioNTech / Pfizer released final data from the Phase III clinical trial: 95% overall effective rate and 94% effective rate for people over the age of 65. On November 20, BioNTech / Pfizer filed an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) application with the FDA in addition to the other applications in sequence to drug regulatory agencies in Australia, Canada, the European Union, Japan and the United Kingdom.
