U.S. Will Export up to 60 Million Doses of AstraZeneca Coronavirus Vaccine

Clearly addressing concerns and criticism about global coronavirus vaccine inequality, the White House said Monday it will begin sharing doses with foreign countries. The administration's Jen Psaki said that the government would provide up to 60 million doses of AstraZeneca's (NASDAQ:AZN) AZD1222 for such nations.

While the AstraZeneca jab is readily available in this country, it has not yet been authorized or approved for use by the FDA, so it cannot be administered here.
