> Because both do not export any vaccine. And the EU does. So even Canada cannot get vaccines from the US

Blatantly Untrue - the US has directly exported vaccine to both Canada and Mexico and it’s companies are producing huge amounts of vaccine worldwide for over 70 countries right now. The UK has fallen short of its export commitments but that is a far cry from ‘do not export any vaccine’.

Again though this just comes back to leverage, the EU and it’s properties generally lack what is in demand: production capacity. That is why we have the short end of the stick right now, blaming everyone but ourselves only fans flames unnecessarily.

Executive order 13962 is still in effect.

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/12/11/2020-27...

Sec. 2. Policy. It is the policy of the United States to ensure Americans have priority access to free, safe, and effective COVID-19 vaccines. After ensuring the ability to meet the vaccination needs of the American people, it is in the interest of the United States to facilitate international access to United States Government COVID-19 Vaccines.

Which in no way directly excludes the export of vaccine to other countries - as I have mentioned the US has directly exported to canada and mexico and its properties are creating vaccine for over 70 countries including every country in the EU.

Can you point to a source for your claim that the US has exported (present perfect) vaccines to anybody? All I can find is news articles from about 10 days ago about plans to export vaccines, not mentioning a date.
