The Anglo-Swedish company stated that it had received more than $ 1 billion from the American Advanced Biomedical Research and Development Authority to develop, produce and deliver the vaccine, starting next fall.

The drug giant said it had already received a request from the US Vaccine Authority to produce about 400 million doses of the vaccine that Oxford University developed to combat the Corona virus, the cause of Covid-19 disease.

The company added in a statement that it “has now guaranteed the ability to manufacture one billion doses, and aims to secure more agreements to expand capacity further during the coming months to ensure that the vaccine is available globally.”

Pascal Sariot, CEO of AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, said the investment would speed up the development and production of the vaccine. It has already been included in the British government’s investment.

“We need to defeat the virus together. Otherwise, our personal, economic and social suffering will continue for a long time,” he added, expressing his thanks to the American and British governments for their great support to accelerate the development and production of the vaccine.

He said: “We are very proud to work with the University of Oxford to turn their pioneering work into a drug that can be produced on a global scale … We will do our best to make this vaccine widely available.”

The British government says 30 million doses of the new “Oxford vaccine” could be available across the UK in September, if proven effective.

The vaccine experiments, officially known as “Shadukush One Covid 19”, were launched on April 24, to see if it could effectively protect healthy people from the Corona virus.

A few days ago, British Business Secretary Alok Sharma confirmed that the first clinical trials were “going well” with all the volunteers who received a dose of the vaccine earlier this month.
