I agree with that, but the UK was one of the first countries to stump up cash and start developing a vaccine before it'd even got bad in the UK. That's basical

I agree with that, but the UK was one of the first countries to stump up cash and start developing a vaccine before it'd even got bad in the UK. That's basically the reason, it was part of the contract that we get first dibs if fund it. I don't think EU countries putting out bad press about the AstraZenica vaccine is doing them any favors either - it's the company they're in negotiations with! Not saying what's fair or isn't here but that's the reality.
