Novavax CZ history
After World War I, the production section of the first State Health Institute of the Czechoslovak Republic was established in Bohumil on the territory of a former farmstead. Its task was to develop and produce sera and vaccines and to control the quality of food and medicines.
After World War II, the State Health Institute moved to Prague and only the part producing sera and vaccines remained in Bohumil. After the Velvet Revolution it was decided to build a plasma processing plant. However, it was never completed and in 2001 the production facility was purchased by the American company Baxter.
Until 2015, Baxter produced seasonal and pandemic influenza vaccines using advanced serum-free Vero cell technology. Subsequently, the company was owned by the Serum Institute of India, the largest vaccine manufacturer in the world. As the coronavirus pandemic emerged, the plant was acquired by the US company Novavax in 2020.
