Given Macron has rubbished the AZ vaccine today to an already vaccine sceptic french public, why would he bother?
France probably as well

Really, I’d not seen that.
Sorry - for the over 65s he says "Everything suggests that it is almost ineffective for those over 65, and some say over 60..."

Just googled. WTF !!! Nobody has said it’s ineffective previously, just not enough data (even EMA said protection is expected). Germany and Frances response is unusual to say the least, either they know something we don’t or there are other things at play here
From Politico.
PARIS — French President Emmanual Macron said Friday the AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine appeared to be “quasi-ineffective” on people older than 65 — just hours before the EU’s drugs regulator approved it for use on all adults.
“The real problem on AstraZeneca is that it doesn’t work the way we were expecting it to,” Macron told a group of reporters, including POLITICO, in Paris. “We’re waiting for the EMA [European Medicines Agency] results, but today everything points to thinking it is quasi-ineffective on people older than 65, some say those 60 years or older.”
Later in the day, the EMA gave the vaccine the green light. It said: “There are not yet enough results in older participants (over 55 years old) to provide a figure for how well the vaccine will work in this group. However, protection is expected, given that an immune response is seen in this age group and based on experience with other vaccines; as there is reliable information on safety in this population, EMA’s scientific experts considered that the vaccine can be used in older adults.”
I'm struggling with the fuss they're making over supply if they don't think it's any good.
Always worries me when no deaths are announced on John Hopkins

EU banning exports of vaccine to NI in bid to stop it reaching Britain
You're giving the EU equivalence to the DUP now?The DUP have been asking for article 16 to be invoked for weeks.
Well, you got it.
fortunately so far none of the silly rhetoric we heard surrounding the fishing industry, gun boats in channel etc.
Time for the government to keep cool heads and act the grown ups for once while the EU make an absolute arse of it.
Keeping this vaccine roll out on track is the most important thing.

Apparently the Republic unhappy with the EU's handling as well
Exactly what I was thinking Clint. No need to get drawn into it all unless there is an actual export ban.
No just thought it was worth pointing out that the DUP are kicking off about something they've been trying for weeks.
Wouldn't expect anything else from those hypocritical weasels though.
They are unhappy with the invoking of article 16 which puts a temp hard border in Ireland.
That is what they are unhappy with

Yes so what I said is correct

They were trying to get a block on vaccines reaching Britain through NI? Eh?
No as you were painting them as unhappy at everything the EU has done.
That's not the EU's handling of courseThey are unhappy with the invoking of article 16 which puts a temp hard border in Ireland.
That is what they are unhappy with
