Merck & Co. plans to spend $650 million on a 21,000 m2 vaccines plant in Durham, North Carolina, to satisfy growing demand for the recombinant human papillomavirus vaccines Gardasil and Gardasil 9. The expansion won’t come without some pain: Merck first plans to end bulk production of a chicken pox vaccine and eliminate 150 jobs at the site. Once the Gardasil unit comes on line, employment there will reach 1,600, about 400 more than at present.
