2. Here it is the "best effort" clause mentioned by Astrazeneca CEO Soriot in my interview https://www.repubblica.it/cronaca/2021/01/26/news/interview_pascal_soriot_ceo_astrazeneca_coronavirus_covid_vaccines-284349628/
4. I rephrase. When Soriot talks on the UK manufacturing sites ( https://repubblica.it/cronaca/2021/01/26/news/interview_pascal_soriot_ceo_astrazeneca_coronavirus_covid_vaccines-284349628/) .
Manufacturing doses for the EU outside the EU looks NOT as much as automatic as the EU assumed and said in the last 2 days. BUT only in this section EU INCLUDES also the UK.
