Quote from The Sun: Pfizer has accused the EU of delaying the supply of its jabs to countries battling Covid which are in desperate need of vaccines.
The drug maker has slammed export controls which it says have become a "significant burden" for production at its plant in Belgium, which supplies the UK and 70 other countries.
Danny Hendrikse, its vice-president for global supply, told The Times that regulations introduced in February put new pressures on the supply chain.
He said the company is now required to notify the Belgian government in advance about every parcel of vaccines it plans to export and approval must then be granted by the European Commission.
“It has caused a significant administrative burden and some uncertainty,” he said.
“Ultimately what we would like our colleagues to do is to focus on making and distributing the vaccine.”
