Moderna is in discussion with the US government to purchase an additional 100 million doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine for delivery in Q3 2021.

To date, the US government has agreed to purchase 200 million doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. This new purchase would bring the US government’s confirmed order commitment to 300 million doses.

According to data, Moderna will continue to leverage the company’s US-based manufacturing infrastructure to supply the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine to the US government.

The Moderna COVID-19 vaccine received Emergency Use Authorization from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on December 18, 2020, and Moderna began supplying to the government shortly thereafter.
