“Now we are working at full speed to approve it & make it available in the EU,” Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, said on Twitter Wednesday.

The EU has already approved the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine for use across its 27 member states.

Unlike the Pfizer/BioNTech shot, Moderna’s vaccine can be stored in normal freezers and does not require a super-cold transportation network, making it more accessible for smaller facilities and local communities.
