Samsung Biologics, a South Korean biopharmaceutical firm, signed a deal Saturday to manufacture Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine at its local factory.

토요일 국내 바이오제약 기업 삼성바이오로직스가 미국 모더나의 코로나19 백신을 국내 공장에서 제조한다는 계약을 체결했다.


Under the agreement, Samsung will provide the U.S. drugmaker with contract manufacturing organization (CMO) services for its mRNA vaccine. It means that some of the Moderna vaccine would be produced in South Korea.

이번 계약에 따라 삼성바이오로직스는 모더나에 코로나19 메신저 리보핵산(mRNA) 백신에 대한 완제 위탁생산(CMO)을 제공한다. 이는 모더나 백신 중 일부가 국내에서 생산되는 것을 의미한다.


The two sides signed the contract during a South Korea-U.S. vaccine partnership event held in Washington, D.C., with President Moon Jae in attendance.

양사는 문재인 대통령이 참석한 가운데 워싱턴에서 열린 한미 백신 파트너십 체결 행사에서 본 계약을 체결했다.


The deal is expected to contribute to the stable and speedy supply of the Moderna vaccine in South Korea, according to Moon's office, Cheong Wa Dae.

청와대는 이번 거래가 모더나 백신의 안정적이고 신속한 국내 공급에 기여할 것으로 기대된다고 밝혔다.


South Korea has an ambitious goal of emerging as a "global vaccine production hub." AstraZeneca, Novavax and Sputnik V vaccines are already being manufactured in the country.

한국은 '글로벌 백신 생산 허브'로 부상한다는 야심찬 목표를 가지고 있다. 아스트라제네카, 노바백스, 스푸트니크V 백신은 이미 국내에서 제조되고 있다.


Moderna also signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with South Korea's Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and the Ministry of Health and Welfare.

모더나는 또한 한국의 산업통상자원부, 보건복지부와 양해각서(MOU)를 체결했다.


Under the MOU, Moderna agreed to strive for investments in the mRNA vaccine production facility and hiring of manpower in South Korea. The ministries plan to offer support for Moderna's investment and business activities.

MOU에 따라 모더나는 mRNA 백신 생산시설 투자와 국내 인력 채용에 힘쓰기로 합의했다. 각 부처는 모더나의 투자와 사업 활동에 대한 지원을 제공할 계획이다.


South Korea's National Institute of Health also signed an MOU with Moderna on strengthening cooperation on research into infectious diseases.

국립보건연구원도 모더나와 감염병 연구 협력을 강화하는 내용의 MOU를 체결했다.


Separately, the health ministry signed a trilateral MOU with SK Bioscience, a South Korean biotechnology company, and Novavax, a U.S. firm, on the development and production of vaccines.

이와는 별도로 보건복지부는 한국의 생명공학 회사인 SK바이오사이언스, 미국 회사인 노바백스와 백신 개발과 생산에 관한 3자 간 MOU를 체결했다.
