Hackers have launched a cyber attack on the European Medicines Agency. The criminals also get documents on the corona vaccine candidate from the pharmaceutical companies Biontech and Pfizer. However, sensitive patient data should not be affected. In a hacker attack on the European Medicines Agency (EMA), data on the corona vaccine of the pharmaceutical companies was accessed, according to Biontech and Pfizer. Affected are “some documents in connection with the submission of approvals for the Covid-19 vaccine candidate from Pfizer and Biontech, BNT162b2,” said Biontech in the evening. There is no evidence that patient data are affected.

According to the EMA, the incident will have no impact on the review deadlines for the vaccine. The authority had previously announced the hacking attack. A comprehensive investigation was immediately initiated, she said. The EMA initially did not provide any further details, such as the time of the cyber attack. In the Corona crisis, the EMA is currently in the limelight. In the EU, the drug authority is responsible for the approval process for drugs, including corona vaccines. The EMA is currently aiming for approval of the corona vaccine from the Mainz-based pharmaceutical company Biontech and its US partner Pfizer by the end of December, and for the drug from US competitor Moderna in mid-January. In the past few months, experts from the agency had already analyzed large amounts of data from preliminary tests carried out by companies.
