自新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情爆发以来，药明生物一直密切关注最新动态，公司管理团队也正积极实施业务连续性计划以减轻相关影响。即日起，药明生物位于无锡、上海和苏州的三大运营基地将全面有序复工。

经统计，药明生物员工在春运期间旅行至武汉、经停武汉或接触来自武汉居民的总数约为6%。截至发稿时，药明生物员工中未有确诊感染病例。药明生物持续密切关注每位员工的健康状况，制定并贯彻了严格的防控措施以确保员工安全复工。目前，已有85%的员工顺利返回工作地，能够确保公司业务正常运营。

药明生物未在武汉建立运营基地，也未有来自武汉的主要供应商，因此公司研发和生产所需的相关物料供应未受影响。此外，样品和物料运输、进出口及清关工作均正常进行。

药明生物也在努力确保公司生产的产品质量不受此次疫情影响。基于强大的GMP质量体系和稳健的全球供应链，公司预计不会看到疫情对其GMP生产运营产生任何负面影响。

另外，针对近期计划来访中国的海外客户，公司将推荐采用视频或电话会议讨论相关业务。

药明生物目前已动员超过240位科学家组建起一支大规模专项攻关技术团队，并与国内外企业密切合作赋能开发、生产多个新型冠状病毒中和抗体，精准阻击疫情。这些中和抗体的体外疗效试验数据预计下月完成。

当前，新型冠状病毒疫情仍在持续。这再次警醒药明生物全体员工：我们必须始终坚持做对的事，造福广大患者。总体而言，公司管理层认为此次新型冠状病毒疫情未对当地业务造成明显负面影响。

WuXi Biologics Provides Back-to-work Operation Update Related to the Coronavirus Outbreak

SHANGHAI, China

February 12, 2020

WuXi Biologics is closely monitoring the coronavirus outbreak. Our management team is working vigilantly to execute our Business Continuity Plan to mitigate any potential risk. All three operating sites in China, namely Wuxi, Shanghai and Suzhou, will resume operations today after the Chinese New Year break.

Overall, approximately 6% of our staff have traveled to Wuhan, transited through Wuhan or had contact with people coming from Wuhan. No employee has been diagnosed with the infection. We are closely monitoring the health of every employee and have implemented strict back-to-work procedures to protect our employees. Approximately 85% of staff are already back to the cities in which they work. We have sufficient number of staff to resume operations.

We do not operate in Wuhan and do not have major suppliers from Wuhan. Supplies for labs and manufacturing are not likely affected. In addition, shipment of samples and materials, import and export, and custom clearance are business as usual.

In addition, WuXi Biologics is also working vigilantly to ensure the quality of the products we are manufacturing is not affected by this outbreak. We have a strong GMP quality system and a robust global supply chain. We do not expect to see any negative impact of this outbreak on our GMP operations.

Overseas clients who plan to travel to China are recommended to conduct meetings via videoconferences or teleconferences.

Lastly, WuXi Biologics has already mobilized a large team of more than 240 scientists and is working closely with global organizations to develop and manufacture multiple neutralizing antibodies to potentially treat the virus infection. In-vitro efficacy of these antibodies will be available next month. 

This situation, which continues to evolve daily, reminds us that we must continue to do the right things for patients. We do not expect to see meaningful negative impact on our business operations in China.
