Novavax's full FDA approval for NUVAXOVID is a transformative milestone, unlocking a $175M Sanofi payment and validating their protein-based vaccine technology. The approval positions Novavax as the only non-mRNA COVID-19 vaccine with full FDA approval, offering a differentiated alternative amid growing mRNA fatigue.

Previously granted Emergency Use Authorization, Nuvaxovid is now available for individuals over 12 years of age.

The FDA has approved Nuvaxovid to prevent COVID-19 in adults 65 years and older and high-risk individuals 12 through 64 years.
