Okay actually gonna expand on this a bit.
The EU acting in a brash way over health issues is not new. That is how these superpowers (esp Western ones) function and it is deeply shitty, if you're using it as a reason to rejoin the EU you don't acc care about the morals here. https://twitter.com/naijaprince21/status/1355280068914929664

The EU is not unique, they are 1 part of a global order where medicine (and crucially patents) are restricted + the global Nth hoards vaccines as they can easily pay pharma companies. Here's an eg of that being encouraged by the Gates Foundation https://khn.org/news/rather-than-give-away-its-covid-vaccine-oxford-makes-a-deal-with-drugmaker/
This also has been happening with HIV/AIDs, tuberculosis etc etc.
Labour/resources etc. are extracted from the Global Sth (and pollution is exported) then they receive a pittance in return. This again is the norm, whether or not the UK are part of the EU https://frontlineaids.org/how-patents-affect-access-to-hiv-treatment/

The focus on NI is correct HOWEVER if you don't link it to a critique of the norm for the Global Sth then you are a) woefully ignorant (in the lack of knowledge way) or b) supporting white supremacy. Here's a good pod on this issue: https://twitter.com/CitationsPod/status/1354459529262624770?s=20
And this links more broadly to issues where people (esp on the left) like to talk about internationalism but only discuss countries which are 'sexy' to talk about (read: perceived as 
adjacent) like Latin/South America. Or places which are Hot TopicsTM like Israel/Palestine etc

Since you've presumably read this thread now and followed the aforementioned links, I'm gonna assume you're no longer ignorant, so if you come into my mentions chatting wass then you're a white supreamcist. Thank you for listening
