EU doesn’t want Hungary to use Russian COVID-19 vaccine

From Daily News Hungary. 

Now, now, now, said enlightened persons to their Eastern country cousins. You don't need to use that Russian stuff. Wait until we, the benevolent European Union, can deliver our vaccine.

“According to Reuters, the interim trial results of the Sputnik V were 92 pc effective at protecting people from the COVID-19 respiratory disease. Meanwhile, U.S. firms Moderna and Pfizer showed slightly better results, but they are not ready for mass production.”

“The European Union already signed contracts with five vaccine makers to buy nearly 2 billion doses, but negotiations are still going on with other producers. That means that Hungary will receive shots from the EU, but that will not be available in early-2021. According to azonnali.hu, that is why the government would like to import and produce Russian vaccines to win some time.”

The European Medicines Agency has not reviewed the Russian vaccine. Sounds like the U.S. FDA deciding European drugs are not good enough for American consumers because the US government had not tested the drugs. Europeans taking a page from the US playbook for a change?
