GlaxoSmithKline PLC and Sanofi said on Monday that it is in
advanced discussions with the European Union to supply up to 300

adjuvant technology.
The company said the doses would be manufactured in Europe.
"It has been our steadfast commitment to provide a vaccine that
is affordable and accessible to everyone, and we are grateful to
the European Commission for their ongoing engagement and shared
support of this effort," Sanofi's Executive Vice President Thomas
Triomphe said.
