Tubingen The biotech company Curevac significantly increased its loss in the third quarter with a sharp rise in sales. The company announced on Thursday evening in Tübingen that the revenue rose by 463 percent to 29.3 million euros compared to the same period last year. The increase in sales in the first nine months is still 44 percent. The increase was mainly due to higher sales from the cooperation with the British pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline, it was said to justify.
