BRASILIA, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Brazilian biomedical center
Butantan expects supplies for around 8.5 million doses of
China's CoronaVac vaccine made by Sinovac Biotech to
arrive by February 3, its director said on Tuesday.
Butantan Director Dimas Covas said about 5,400 liters of
active ingredients, said he hopes the initial shipment, enough
to fill and finish some 8.5 million doses, would be followed by
a similar load delivered shortly after. He also said Butantan
plans to have a factory fully producing the Chinese vaccine by
early next year.
