La soci\u00e9t\u00e9 allemande de biotechnologie BioNTech a estim\u00e9 le 11 janvier 2021 \u00eatre en mesure de produire \u00ab 2 milliards de doses \u00bb du vaccin contre le Covid-19 d\u2019ici la fin 2021, nettement plus que le pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent objectif portant sur 1,3 milliard de doses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La PME allemande, associ\u00e9e au g\u00e9ant am\u00e9ricain Pfizer, est parvenue \u00e0 cette nouvelle estimation en tenant compte du \u00ab nouveau standard \u00bb permettant d\u2018\u2009administrer 6 doses par flacon au lieu de 5, selon un document mis en ligne sur son site internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BioNTech compte \u00e9galement sur \u00ab l\u2018\u2009expansion de ses installations actuelles \u00bb, dont la mise en route, attendue fin f\u00e9vrier, d\u2019un autre site de production europ\u00e9en, \u00e0 Marbourg en Allemagne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cette nouvelle usine, qualifi\u00e9e de \u00ab point d\u2018\u2009inflexion majeure \u00bb par l\u2019entreprise, va permettre d\u2019ajouter \u00bb jusqu\u2019\u00e0 750 millions de doses \u00bb \u00e0 la capacit\u00e9 annuelle de production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La quantit\u00e9 de doses disponibles est l\u2018\u2009un des enjeux majeurs d\u2019une strat\u00e9gie de vaccination contre le Covid-19 au niveau mondial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Le site de Marbourg, le second en Allemagne, pourrait d\u00e9j\u00e0 fournir 250 millions de doses suppl\u00e9mentaires au premier semestre, venant renforcer l\u2018\u2009usine belge de Puurs o\u00f9 sont produits les lots \u00e0 destination de l\u2019UE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L\u2018\u2009alliance germano-am\u00e9ricaine compte \u00e9galement trois sites de production aux \u00c9tats-Unis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
