"was just watching it on france 24 and it seems the that the reason no one in the eu used their emergency powers to give the vaccine early as the uk did was because their governments would have been liable to be sued if anything went wrong.Now the european medical agency has approved it the companies producing it are liable.

"Maybe they just got a cheaper price per dose as they ordered a far larger quantity than the UK did, works like that when you bulk buy any product so I cant see why this would differ. The main thing is at least we are already on the road to vaccinating our vulnerable ands that's a good thing for everyone no matter if you are a leavers or a remainer." Yes, and I wonder if the EU price would have been even cheaper if, say for example, nearly 70m people hadn't left because of 17.4m brainwashed idiots? | |||

That is my worry will we get the vaccine we need the dates are being but back acording to the calculator"We will get our vaccines, exactly as per any contract we have signed. Any possible delays will be due to manufacturing issues, not political ones. Pfizer have said that they are willing to cut prices to supply the poorer nations. Should the Astra/Oxford vaccine be approved, then that is said to be a fifth of the cost of Pfzier. | |||
