EU tightens vaccine export rules | DW News

The European Union has introduced the principles of "reciprocity" and "proportionality" for vaccine exports. Officials say this doesn't mean that the EU has banned exports to Britain. So far, the European Union has ordered 2.6 billion doses from six different manufacturers but a significant increase in shipments is not expected until the second quarter of this year. According to the United Nations, Malta has received the most doses in the EU relative to its population (33%) while Bulgaria has received the fewest (6%). Germany is in the middle, at 13%. On Thursday, EU leaders will examine why the distribution across the bloc is so uneven.
