Together with pharmaceutical company Bayer, CureVac is working to make the first generation of the vaccine available as quickly and widely as possible. The European Union has now secured 225 million doses and an option for 180 million more, CureVac said.
The vaccine is said to require a lower dosage of the active ingredient, which makes the vaccine more tolerable and also reduces production costs. In addition, CureVac's vaccine should be able to be stored at normal refrigerator temperatures.
The Tübingen-based company expects to be able to produce 300 million doses of its CnCov vaccine by the end of the year and even up to one billion doses in 2022. CureVac already has a concrete plan for how to achieve rapid production of the CureVac vaccine. The Tübingen-based company is relying primarily on a large number of partners throughout Europe.
Co. wants to start production as early as this month at a plant in Amsterdam - about 100 million doses are to be produced this year, and 200 million next year, according to Manager Magazin. Similar plans are being pursued by the Belgian "Wavre" plant of "Glaxosmithkline". In addition, the Corona vaccine is to be filled by the Luxembourg contract manufacturer "Valneva" in two French plants from the end of May or beginning of June, according to the Paris Ministry of Economy.<--Smart strategy might catapult them ahead of the others.
"Novartis" is providing a plant in Austria for up to 50 million doses this year and 200 million next year. Swabian producer Rentschler Biopharma, announced in February it could supply up to 100 million vaccine doses annually. CureVac's vaccine is also to be filled in Heidelberg - at a Celonic plant. In addition, CureVac itself is building a large vaccine factory of its own in Tübingen, Germany, for one billion doses annually.<-------

$6.7 B marketcap and not one penny of earnings.... nor even any forecast earnings.
You're smarter than this Stoney. Dude, don't fall into this sea of complacency.
Yes I'm sure it will up another 8% tomorrow... and if one thinks they're quicker than average bear in the game of WS musical chairs.... buy into this BS.
But until a stock can prove it WILL make money (given the benefit of the doubt on its current lack thereof).... I would not touch a stock like this with a 100 yard pole.
The whole used car thing is waaaaay overplayed.
Wanna know what one of the top most shorted stocks on the NAZ is... Carvana.
And if any of them will survive, this one will. Not to mention CarMax has deeper pockets than any of them combined.
Whatever Stoney.
Stick with CureVac and Affirm... and even those two are iffy, but they'll probably be ok.
EU To Allow U.S. Travelers To Visit This Summer, If Fully Vaccinated
The EU will allow Americans to visit this summer if they are fully vaccinated
It is the news that many Americans have been waiting for; that they will be able to visit the EU over summer. Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, told The New York Times in Brussels on Sunday that Americans who have been fully vaccinated, will be allowed to visit European countries over the summer.
It is understood, that although a date has not yet been given for when travel can begin, it will be allowed because of two reasons: firstly, the successful roll out of the vaccination program in the U.S. and secondly, because of the agreement between all 27 EU countries on the need to use vaccination certificates–France became the first EU country to trial its version on flights.
Stoney!

UniQure shares rise 8% as FDA lifts clinical hold on hemophilia B gene therapy program- The FDA hasremoved the clinical holdon UniQure's(NASDAQ:QURE)hemophilia B gene therapy program after determining the Company satisfactorily addressed all issues identified by the Agency related to a single patient diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the HOPE-B trial.
- “Our comprehensive investigation showed that AMT-061 (etranacogene dezaparvovec) is very unlikely to have contributed to the HCC in our patient. We look forward to announcing top-line 52-week data from the HOPE-B pivotal trial later this quarter,” stated Ricardo Dolmetsch, Ph.D., President of R&D.
- Following a surgical resection of both tumor and adjacent liver tissue, multiple analyses show that AAV vector integration in the patient’s tissue sample was extremely rare and accounted for 0.027% of the cells in the sample.
- The integration events were distributed randomly across the genome, and there was no evidence of clonal expansion or any dominant integration event.
- Additionally, whole genome sequencing confirmed that the tumor had genetic mutations that are characteristic of HCC and are independent of vector integration.
- Finally, gene expression analysis and adjacent tissue suggested a precancerous state in the liver that may have predisposed this patient to HCC.
- QURE shares rise 8.4% premarket trading at $35.00.
- Previously in Dec. 2020, FDA placed the hemophilia B program on clinical hold following the diagnosis of HCC in one patient in the HOPE-B trial.
Palantir Technologies: Valuing A Company Of No Profitability
Apr. 25, 2021 2:40 PM ETPalantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR)
Apr. 25, 2021 2:40 PM ETPalantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR)
- Palantir presents a good opportunity to value a bubble-like stock with no meaningful company profitability.
- Palantir’s Government segment is a pipeline for long-term, low-risk deferred income, while the Commercial segment is like a high-margin corporate option waiting to be exercised.
- At this point, the Commercial segment future growth needs Microsoft, Amazon, or Google ecosystem’s investments much more than Cathie Wood’s investments.
- At this point, investors value Palantir's growth more than its profitability.
- As a result, Palantir's shares may be fairly valued between $28 and $33.
