The EU is back on schedule with the Pfizer vaccine.
Originally posted by BlasterBates View PostIndeed and if the supply issues were due to the "bumbling bureaucracy" why is there only a problem with the Astra-Zeneca vaccine but not with Pfizer, I would expect all vaccine manufacturers to be affected. Interestingly other manufacturers seem to be stepping in to cover the shortfall without 6 months notice. The US also ordered their vaccines 3 months after the UK and have no issues.Comment

The EU is back on schedule with the Pfizer vaccine.
Oh victory after threatening the Irish peace process is that AZ will attempt to provide half the doses they originally promised.
Von der Leyen said late Sunday on Twitter that the Anglo-Swedish drugmaker would start deliveries one week earlier than scheduled and expand manufacturing. The extra doses would bring the total to 40 million, only about half of what the EU had expected from Astra through March.
Of course other charts are available, the UAE seems to be doing well. Malta on 3 times better than Germany.

The output of factories depends on biological processes such as the growth of cell cultures. And the ones in AstraZeneca’s Belgian plant didn’t play along, even as their siblings at facilities in Britain and elsewhere kept sprouting.
So to summarise the UK's successful strategy has more to do with luck than a "nimble" bureacracy.I'm alright JackComment
