AstraZeneca president defended the plan to distribute the coronavirus vaccine in the European Union, amid tensions with member states over the delay in their supply of the vaccine, and held the Union responsible for the delay in the signing of an agreement between them.

Pascal Soriot told Italian newspaper La Repubblica that his team is working “24 hours a day, seven days a week, to solve the many problems associated with vaccine production.”

He added that production “is essentially two months behind the date we wanted.”

He also explained that the European Union’s late decision to sign contracts had reduced the time needed to identify areas of supply disruption.
