The European Union has allowed some 34 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine exports over the past weeks, according to figures published by the EU.
There are still shortages at home as EU members continue to struggle to get the vaccine drive up to speed. Over 9.1 million doses were exported to the United Kingdom, during diplomatic tensions over vaccine exports and the implementation of the Brexit agreement. The exports are almost as high as the roughly 45 million doses that have been distributed within the EU as of last week.
