If Pfizer’s corona vaccine is approved at the EU meeting on December 23, 9,750 doses will be shipped to each member state on Christmas Eve. Everyone is then given the same “ceremonial number”, as Richard Bergström describes it.
But on thursday The European Commission agreed with Pfizer to move to a new delivery schedule, which means more doses can be delivered this Christmas.
– Pfizer has managed to recover the production problems that it had before. They have increased the pace, which means you can start vaccination earlier on a larger scale, he says.
The Swedish government and SKR must now take a position on the new delivery schedule, which means that 80,000 doses a week can be delivered from December 28, according to Richard Bergström.
– All EU countries have the opportunity to change to a different time. Member countries now have the opportunity to start earlier with decent volumes.
In the search for vaccines, he also negotiates on behalf of Norway. For the neighboring country, the new announcement means that around 40,000 weekly doses will be delivered on weekdays.
– I’m happy that we receive even more doses of vaccines in the middle of the day, Erna Solberg tells NRK after the news.
