Johnson & Johnson takes control at troubled emergent vaccine plant

5th April 2021

After a manufacturing mix-up forced J&J to discard up to 15,000 doses of its vaccine made there, and after news emerged of Emergent's history of violations there, the US government stepped in, handing control of the plant to the pharma giant. J&J over the weekend said it’s “assuming full responsibility” for drug substance manufacturing at Emergent's troubled plant in Baltimore.  Source: Fierce Pharma 5/4/2021
