WASHINGTON, D.C (GNB)- A batch of single dose Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine failed quality standards and can’t be used, the company said late Wednesday.
“This quality control process identified one batch of drug substance that did not meet quality standards at Emergent Biosolutions, a site not yet authorized to manufacture drug substance for our COVID-19 vaccine”, Johnson & Johnson said in a statement. This batch was never advanced to the filling and finishing stages of our manufacturing process, said in the statement
The company didn’t say how many doses were lost, and it wasn’t clear how the problem would impact future deliveries.
J&J had pledged to provide 20 million doses of its vaccine to the U.S. government by the end of March, and 80 million more doses by the end of May. Its statement on the manufacturing problem said it was still planning to deliver 100 million doses by the end of June and was “aiming to deliver those doses by the end of May.”
