This agreement will initially supply 150 million doses to Latin America, excluding Brazil, which will be covered by the AstraZeneca agreement with the Brazilian Government, announced last June. \u00a0First shipments are expected in the first half of 2021, should clinical trials prove to be successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AstraZeneca recognizes the urgency of the global pandemic and will work together with partners to supply and make the vaccine available in an equitable manner. AstraZeneca is working with Latin American strategic partners, including Argentina and Mexico taking advantage of their supply capacity to facilitate the early availability of the potential vaccine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another important milestone in AstraZeneca response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in its efforts to ensure broad and equitable access of the potential vaccine. Recently, the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca <a href=\"https:\/\/www.astrazeneca.com\/content\/astraz\/media-centre\/press-releases\/2020\/covid-19-vaccine-azd1222-showed-robust-immune-responses-in-all-participants-in-phase-i-ii-trial.html\">announced<\/a> interim results of a UK Phase I\/II clinical trial showing robust immune responses against the SARS-CoV2 virus in all participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sylvia Varela<\/strong>, Country President of AstraZeneca Mexico, said: <em>&#8220;<\/em><em>We are very proud of the work that\nAstraZeneca is doing at the forefront of science and with the rest of the\nindustry to help save lives and mitigate the devastating humanitarian, social\nand economic consequences of this global pandemic.

Based\non the research leaded by the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca, a potential\nvaccine is being developed that it\u2019s on phase 3 with encouraging expectations,\nconsequently we have decided to join the effort for its production in Mexico\nand Argentina and then, to initiate the supply to Latin America.
