The EU has been highly critical of AstraZeneca and it’s lack of “reliable strategy”

The Commission said the pharmaceutical company doesn't have a"reliable plan" to ensure timely deliveries of the Covid-19 jab.

The European Commission said on Monday it has launched legal action against AstraZeneca for failing to respect its contract to supply Covid-19 vaccines to the EU.Under the contract, the company had committed to making its"best reasonable efforts" to deliver 180 million vaccine doses to the EU in the second quarter of this year.However, the company said in a statement on March 12 it would aim to deliver one-third of the original figure.

"The Commission has started last Friday a legal action against AstraZeneca," an EU spokesman told a news conference on Monday. "Some terms of the contract have not been respected and the company has not been in a position to come up with a reliable strategy to ensure timely delivery of doses."How good is the final episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier?
