Novavax is a US company. Glaxo is partly British.
Manufacturing to be done in the UK. EU suppliers and manufacturers not getting a sniff.
No surprise. No one wants to do things in the EU any more because their stance is to extort advantages by shamelessly misconstruing the contracts they have.
Novavax is stalling on signing a contract with the EU due to its treatment of AstraZeneca. So the EU is learning the hard way not to screw with the market.
It's sad that EU citizens get to suffer because their politicians are so useless.
