VdL-'Europe Needs Its Fair Share' Of Vaccines In Threat To UK, US

EU COMMISSION

Commission President Ursula von der Leyen speaking presently on COVID-19 and specifically on the proposal for a 'green certificate' to facilitate travel in the EU (Link: https://audiovisual.ec.europa.eu/en/ebs/live/1).

  • Green certificate will say if EU citizen has had vaccine, been tested, or recovered from COVID-19.
  • Green certificate will be accepted by all EU countries and and help to reinstate travel.
  • VdL criticises AstraZeneca for failing to hit target number of vaccine doses delivered, praises Pfizer and Moderna.
  • 'We are cresting a third wave' of COVID-19 as cases rise in many EU member states
  • 'We have received over 300 requests for vaccine exports, 314 have been granted, 1 has been refused.'
  • 'Open roads run in both directions, we need reciprocity and proportionality [in vaccine exports].' Essentially a threat to vaccine producing countries and those with higher vaccination rates (specifically meaning the UK and the US here). 'We will use whatever tool we need'.
