EU’s AstraZeneca vaccine problems linked to mystery factory delay

Dutch facility listed in EU contract is yet to deliver a single dose to the bloc

AstraZeneca’s struggle to ramp up vaccine supplies to the EU is partly because of the failure of one of the company’s key European manufacturing sites to deliver any doses to the bloc six months after the supply contract was agreed.

The Dutch factory, run by subcontractor Halix, is yet to receive EU regulatory approval to supply the region even though it was named in the deal signed between AstraZeneca and the European Commission in August.

EU officials said AstraZeneca was yet to provide sufficient data. The company said approval of the site remained “on track”.

The mystery of the Dutch factory underlines the growing questions over both AstraZeneca’s management of its EU contract and the bloc’s oversight. AstraZeneca has fallen far behind its planned vaccine deliveries to the EU, which has had a major effect on vaccination rollout.
