FDA says it concludes inspection of Emergent plant, issues 483 letter. Production of J&J vaccine remains stopped until issues are remediated. 483 letter here: fda.gov/media/147762/d…
FDA observations re Emergent plant:

1: Failure to conduct thorough investigations into unexplained discrepancies.

Specifically, cross-contamination of two viral vaccines. FDA: “there is no assurance that other batches have not been subject to cross-contamination.”
Note- FDA cites “cross-contamination of client [redacted] viral vaccine drug substance batch... with the virus from client [redacted].”

Emergent’s CEO April 1: “It wasn’t the case where an ingredient from one vaccine contaminated or impacted the other.”
