Australia Holds European Union Responsible for Inefficient Covid-19 Vaccine Distribution

  • By Jennifer Prill
  • (General Dispatch) – On Wednesday, the Austrian Prime Minister blamed Europe for contributing to the obstruction of the effective distribution of vaccines in his country.
  • Initially, Australia would have established agreements with Oxford to guarantee the supply of vaccines, assuring that the shortage of vaccines faced by the nation is due to the strict export controls demanded by the European Commission.
  • It can be inferred that Australia is one of the countries that has prolonged the time lapses to start the vaccination process. After promising four million doses, it has only been able to administer 920,000 injections this past week.
  • Likewise, the nation is waiting for 3.1 million doses from Astrazeneca, despite the stoppages the company had to undergo when it was accused of formulating irregular blood clots in the body.
  • Consequently, Australia claims that “this is its ticket back to normality”, and is anxiously waiting for the European Union to facilitate exports in the coming days.
  • It is important to note that several Austrian citizens express great frustration at not being able to be immunized due to the restrictive measures. They hope to continue with the development of their activities.
  • Similarly, the company Astrazeneca continues to overcome the obstacles it has faced in recent weeks. In order to guarantee the supply of demand in several countries.
  • Finally, Australia will have to wait patiently for the vaccines to be made available in the coming weeks; although there is really no guarantee that the doses will arrive.
