Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Armed with a list of manufacturing violations, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has halted production at contract manufacturer (CMO) Emergent BioSolution's Bayview plant in Baltimore, Maryland. In addition, 60 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) "one-shot" COVID-19 vaccines have been quarantined, meaning the bulk drug product will not be shipped to a fill-and-finish facility for completion.
Just two weeks ago, as a result of manufacturing issues, Johnson & Johnson had taken over production at the plant, but the FDA edict dates back to an inspection from 2020 that was not properly addressed. On top of this latest problem, use of the vaccine has been suspended by the FDA pending concerns over side effects, although this ban is expected to be lifted soon.
