[quote Baileysforchristmas]@3asAbird The Hague hasn’t been approved by the EMA to use for the EU.
Some confusion remains over whether the plant is actually producing doses for the EU. It hasn’t been approved to make drug substance in the EU, according to the company’s conditional marketing authorization from the EMA, updated most recently on February 18.[/quote]
See this is where I get confused.
I thought the ema approved Oxford az not only to be made within EU countries but distributed and used.
The Hague/ helix is within the EU so any product they now produced due to export ban could be blocked.
But uk government led us to belive they haven't blocked our phizer order which was bonkers anyway as their disagreement was with Oxford az Sweden not phizer biotech which is part german.
But keeping az orders hostage is odd.
I thought uk said all our vaccines coming from uk factories.
Is there 2 factories EU Netherlands and Belgium only authorised to make az bit you saying Netherlands has not been authorised by EMA to make vaccines for EU.
The vaccines made in India I thought were being delivered to the EU not uk which is why az could immediately come up with so many doses and not taking from UK supply chain as we all know our contracts are different.
The we lead with fact so e EU countries have az doses say in fridge and not using them as least 6 countries put restrictions on age not suitable for over 50s or under 65.
Do EU have stuck order of groups they vaccinate like uk?
Even more bonkers some eu Eastern countries so desperate they buying from China and Russia which has no ema approval.
Now fda in USA has approved janson will ema approve soon as they desperate for any vaccines soon that are not Oxford AZ.
If we did invest in the Netherlands factory and now we cabt get stock whos going to reimburse uk?
Whys uk mainstream media not covering this?
We know we have a quiet few weeks vaccines wise but given no explanations as to why supply has slowed.
