BERLIN, Aug 4 (Reuters) - German vaccine maker BioNTech

lowered its full year sales outlook range on Tuesday

due to softer-than-expected COVID-19 vaccine demand and the

timing of milestone-related revenues.

The company, which this week announced it had picked Guido

Oelkers as its next CEO, now expects 2026 revenue between €1.6

billion and €1.9 billion ($1.84 billion-$2.19 billion) versus

the €2 billion to €2.3 billion it had guided for in March.
