Four EU countries have signed a contract with pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca to produce enough Oxford University vaccines to rid the continent of Covid-19 infections, the Italian health minister said.
Under the agreement, British-Swedish pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca will produce up to 400 million doses of the vaccine, which is enough for “the whole population of Europe,” Roberto Speranza wrote on Facebook.

The minister said that trials for the vaccine, which was developed by Oxford University, are set to be completed this fall, and the first doses will be available by the end of the year. “The vaccine is the only definitive solution to Covid-19,” he wrote.
AstraZeneca has a deal with the US government to supply the country with 300 million doses of the vaccine. Earlier this week, the company signed an agreement with American firm Emergent BioSolutions to be its manufacturing partner in the US.
Various nations and companies have been racing to develop a vaccine for the novel coronavirus, which has infected more than 7.6 million people globally, and killed over 426,000, according to Johns Hopkins University.

I very much doubt anybody could put out a safe effective fully-tested vaccine in less than two or three years…UNLESS the germ warriors had a head start. Which it looks like OXFORD and/or its American biowar buddies did have. https://www.patreon.com/posts/john-hankey-us-37831089
I’m sure both China and Iran are fully aware that they’ve been attacked by a US bioweapon, and it looks like the US is willing to keep up the pressure on China’s economy. They’ve just been attacked again, this time in Beijing. How long China is going to put up with this remains to be seen. If there’s any nation that deserves to be sanctioned and totally ostracized by the rest of the world, it’s the USA.
We have the vaccine still being tested on 50 volunteers from the Ministry of defense. Making vaccine and to test it takes time.
Amen. They will need larger tests after than on a variety of groups of people, and ages.
