Uh, are you aware that AZ is massively short of its commitments to deliver doses due to manufacturing problems? They are something like 70 million doses short, so it is public knowledge that they have to choose which deliveries to honour first. The particular plant started operating in October 2020, at which point things are far enough along that there is no practical reason for why an application can't be started.

> due to manufacturing problems. Precisely, which is why I think a manufacturing issue is the most likely reason why they haven't applied for EMA authorisation yet. EU regulators can be and have been very picky. If you want to buy into the theory that they are choosing to favour the UK and other countries at the expense of the EU then fine. There may be on contractual reason why they feel they have to do that but some sort of conspiracy seems far fetched at this stage.
