JAN 29 (Xinhua) -- Vaccine makers are constantly trying to resupply European Union countries with shortages of new vaccines and urged countries not to bicker over vaccine distribution, Hans Kluge, the World Health Organization's regional director for Europe, said Thursday.
According to Reuters, Krueger told an online news conference that unity does not necessarily mean that every country in the world starts getting vaccinated at the same time;
asked about the delay in providing Pfizer and AstraZeneta vaccines to patients in 27 EU countries, Krueger said governments and manufacturers should work together to address "outstanding issues" in vaccine availability.
that manufacturers are speeding up production at a 7-by-24-hour rate to close the gap with vaccine demand, and that production will increase in the future.
earlier EU had asked AstraZeneta to transfer vaccine supplies from the UK, while the UK had asked to receive all vaccines it had paid for.
the EU and the UK are playing a game on this.
addition, reports say the EU lags far behind Israel, the UK and the US in distributing vaccines, and the EU is scrambling to find supplies.
need to be patient and take some time to get vaccinated, " mr. Krueger said.
" Krueger added that 25 million vaccines have been vaccinated in 35 countries in Europe.
but persistent high rates of transmission and emerging virus variants have led to an urgent need for vaccination for the focus population, and the pace of vaccine production and distribution has not yet been as rapid as expected.
