horsefly 4,275 Posted January 21, 2021 2 minutes ago, SwindonCanary said: Brussels block Dublin from buying Oxford vaccine as EU population aren't 'guinea pigs' - Dublin Live So deliberately misleading then: The European Commission said that coronavirus vaccines cannot be delivered before they get regulatory approval. Today, Micheal Martin told the Dail that an early consignment of the Oxford jab would not be forthcoming. Although the Taoiseach said the latest COVID-19 vaccine will arrive in Ireland before mid-February. He said: “We have a much more comprehensive and detailed plan in terms of ramping up then the volume for the next phase, particularly after the authorisation of the AstraZeneca vaccine, which should be on the 29 January with from the EMA and then delivery for their timeline for mid-February. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually think they are being really sensible waiting for the AstraZeneca paper to be published ( I assume they will get the results before that and they are the extra info they are awaiting ). They will know when they approve the best way to administer it 1/2 dose 1 dose, 3 week second dose, 8 - 12 week second dose, but they will also know wether it is definitely ok against our, the South African and Brazilian variations.

The world needs to be vaccinated, I thought you understood GAVI and Covax. No comments on Sputnik and Russia helping AstraZeneca to improve the Oxford vaccine then ?. I think that’s fantastic news as surely if the Oxford vaccine can achieve higher efficacy that’s fantastic news.

Jenner group and Russia who are funding it both seem to think it’s a fantastic development. The virus doesn't respect International borders, races, religion or politics. Neither should the scientists and companies fighting it. It's a global challenge where for once the whole world needs to act. United. Biden has grasped that. Lastly I do wish PM would not try to judge others by his base gutter selfish standards. If the EU was acting as he infers then it would have been trivial for it to withhold Pfizer (or indeed AZ) for it's own internal emergency use ala Trump. Clearly it didn't. No, the shallow dimwits that try to point score on Brexit on the various authorization processes really do need to take a good long look at themselves in the mirror. It's not a pretty sight.

I had a morning of our own customs issues of now disrupted supply chains for odd cases Simplest solution is more 6 figure custom bonds and guarantees where previously the equivalent of a stamp would of sufficed. Put me in a bad mood all day that we have to humour these right Brexit Charlies. However, the positive is sooner broken sooner fixed and its breaking much faster and harder than I could of predicted.
