Thought it was us Brits that were supposed to be xenophobic?

A moot topic. They have not procured enough vaccine for those who want it today! Can't understand why they didn't order far more from Biontech, a company right inside their own borders.

Surprised? Not really it's not just the German media and EU politicians that have smeared a perfectly acceptable vaccine high efficacy and 100% protection against death but the left-wing pro EU rags in the UK too Guardian/Independent to well done you.

Not only in Germany

This is inevitable following the ridiculous behaviour of French/ German politicians- Macron especially. If I was German and trusted politicians there, I wouldn't want the AZ jag. Thabkfully I'm not so will happily have it in my arm.

No, Jens Spahn the health Minister today said it is perfectly safe and will be used for persons under 65 working in health. Germany has a producer advised two dose strategy and a much lower per capita mortality than the UK. That's the story.

Can’t help but feel this is their own fault 🤔

Several vaccines are 95% effective, while Oxford/AstraZeneca is 65%. Rationally, and individual may prefer a 5% risk than a 35% risk. WHO cannot badmouth it but individuals and states have reasons to have a negative bias

Reap what you sow. If you spend three weeks trash talking it in the press what did you think was going to happen.

EU politicians spent a couple of weeks trashing the AZ vaccine as a diversion from their vaccine rollout failures. Now they are surprised that their people don't want it? I am sure there are many countries around the world who will take it off their hands.

That’s what happens when politicians lie for political reasons. If that was Boris the Guardian would write about it.

Its your European Politicians who were playing hardball with AstraZeneca, sell it to the African/Asian Countries as there is nothing wrong with it!

🤚 I'll take it

It’s probably the safest more traditional vaccine based on age old methods...
