Denmark-based Bavarian Nordic A/S announced today that the U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) exercised the first options under an existing contract to supply a freeze-dried version of the JYNNEOS® smallpox vaccine.
The first doses of this vaccine version will be manufactured and invoiced in 2023 and 2024.
If exercised, additional options on the BARDA contract support the conversion of up to a total of approximately 13 million freeze-dried doses of JYNNEOS smallpox vaccine that are expected to be manufactured in 2024 and 2025.
The majority of the bulk vaccine for these doses has already been manufactured.
A supplement to the existing liquid frozen JYNNEOS U.S. FDA BLA will be made comprising Phase 3 clinical study data, which has already been completed and reported, together with the manufacturing data to support the approval of the freeze-dried version of JYNNEOS in 2024.
Paul Chaplin, President and CEO of Bavarian Nordic, commented in today's press release, "We are pleased to announce the exercise of the first options under our contract with the U.S. government to deliver a freeze-dried version of the smallpox vaccine with an improved shelf-life, which will be manufactured at our new fill and finish facility."
"This marks a significant milestone in our long-standing partnership with the U.S. government to ensure availability of life-saving vaccines for the entire population."
Jynneos is based on a live, attenuated vaccinia virus (Modified Vaccinia Ankara, MVA-BN), incapable of replicating in the human body yet able to elicit a potent immune response.
To protect people from monkeypox, the Jynneos vaccine was approved by the U.S. FDA in 2019.
Jynneos (Imvamune or Imvanex) was also approved by the European Medicines Agency in 2013 and is indicated for preventing smallpox and monkeypox disease in adults.

I guess they'll use a Monkeypox pandemic as the excuse this time. Got it.
I’ll take 2 please!
They're major Preppers. Got the good Freeze Dried stuff. All I've got is canned goods, dry goods and a garden.
Why not eradicate the vector?
And Tucker just had a segment about how Biden will commit us to a legally binding global pandemic agreement run by the WHO this weekend ....
-- Frank Zappa
Not for me.
They say it’s legally binding, but I don’t see how the WHO can change the rules then countries vote on the changes and if passed, our constitutional rights become secondary when a pandemic is declared.
But these ‘tards will say it’s perfectly legal.
“Monkeypox, a close relative of smallpox that typically causes milder illness, is rarely spread between people.
In parts of west and central Africa where the virus originated, humans are most often exposed through contact with wild animals: either via bites and scratches, or during the preparation of bush meat.”

Hmmm, maybe I shouldn’t have eaten that rump roast of babbon butt marinated in Chimichurri Sauce this evening.
Dang it. I had Spider Monkey Surprise for dinner. It was pretty good, too. I guess I’d better not do that again.
And tater head will enforce it?
Perhaps some euroweene blue helmets that have never even seen a group of 240lb corn-fed rednecks on a souvenir hunt?
He can even claim it is a treaty but it must be ratified or it is just a comic book.
I'll put my money on the corn-fed rednecks, thank you very much.
.
Well supposedly Monkey Pox is pretty much just a sexually transmitted disease, although it technically can be transmitted by direct contact with fresh saliva. But the gist of it is unless you engaged in some “monkey business” with someone with Monkey Pox, you likely have very little to worry about.
Biden can’t commit us to a treaty, it requires Senate approval.
That’s DOA even with a Democratic majority....
They’ll send it to the border before giving it to Americans, especially those in Red states.
The Senate ratified it when they ratified the UN Charter on 28 July 1945.
The WHO is an UN agency.
“No thanks. I had bugs for lunch.”
Smallpox vaccine has 95% efficacy.
I had Monkey Brain Soup In the Half Skull w/ Two Eyeballs for dinner tonite, I’m quitting that cuisine. Dang!
13 Million Freeze-Dried Monkeypox for bathhouses ?
