A Brisbane based medical technology company backed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will produce 300 million needle-free vaccine kits a year for the Queensland government.

Vaxxas has secured a multi-million dollar contract to manufacture a high-density micro-projection array patch (MAP) vaccine delivery system in Queensland after the Palaszczuk government committed to building a new medical facility in Hamilton in the city’s north.
