J&J: GR company producing vaccine

A Grand Rapids company is ready to produce the Johnson & Johnson one-dose COVID-19 vaccine.

Grand River Aseptic Manufacturing says they were awarded a contract last summer to handle the fill-finish portion of production.

The FDA released documents saying the vaccine is safe and effective with an overall effectiveness of 72 percent.

The FDA independent advisors are expected to meet this week to discuss an emergency use authorization for the vaccine.

GRAM is hiring for around 100 jobs to increase production of the vaccine.
