Possibly because supplies to the UK aren't under threat? The Oxford/AZ vaccine is made in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands but mostly in the UK. It appears the hold up is in the Belgian facility. It may be that this is where AZ anticipated fulfilling EU requirements from, and that may in turn have been a decision influenced by when the EU was likely to require its supply. Let's not forget to date the bungling European Medicines Agency has not even managed to issue approval for the vaccine.
