BioNTech (a German company) invents the vaccine known as Pfizer. German (and EU) administration then fails to roll it out.

Also weekly meetings changing (symbolic) measures, making everyone tired of the whole show.

There are over 100Mi doses of Pfizer/Biontech deployed in the EU as of today.

Sure, you can question the delays (which given the time between application and approval wasn't too different from the FDA)

Do you mean they have the vaccine but can't give it to people? I thought we did not secure enough of them.

Yeah, that is not good.

You call that "a real shit show"?

Edit: Oh nevermind. You where not the person I asked. Sorry.

All of the above. Finally they are just giving it to doctors and now numbers are finally ramping up. Leave us some drinks at the opening party, Germany will be a few months late.
