As i thought, that headline is about the phizer vaccine and not the astrazeneca one.
From bbc news.
AstraZeneca is mainly produced in the UK, while the UK's supplies of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine come from the company's Belgian plant.
.
The uk produces the vast majority of astrazeneca vaccine, what you are talking about is a new centre in essex that will be up and running by late 2021 and not the existing laboratories that produce the vast majority of the vaccine in the uk.

But much more importantly EU will restrict the export of Astra Zeneca vaccines that it has already paid for.
UK has limited vaccine production capacity, it is building more but they won’t be online till mid / late 2021. All early production is in Netherlands and Germany. EU has paid for large volumes of vaccines, funded quite a bit of the development, so they are threatening to limit exports to non EU countries.
And isn’t the Biontec vaccine made in Belgium?
EU threatens to block Covid vaccine exports amid AstraZeneca shortfall

"Ethical repugnancy"
Spot on .
As far as the EU's AstraZeneca tantrum goes: the UK government funded the development of the vaccine, it was developed in the UK and the UK's order precedes the EU's order. Meanwhile the EU bet too heavily for political reasons on a French Sanofi vaccine which is not yet ready.
The BBC is now quoting EU politicians demanding that AstraZeneca strip UK made supplies out of the UK into the EU.
I doubt the EU is really crazy enough to be serious about this behaviour which is sub-Putin/Trump level, but presume they're just using to distract attention from the elephant in the room which was how badly they handled the vaccine ordering issue earlier.

I feel genuine sorrow for you if this really is your true way of going on and you believe all you say.
However if you are deliberately doing a wind up(which I believe) it's so ridiculous it's worth a laugh.
Grandmothers and eggs come to mind.
Seriously, if this is how you think and also the same in your reply to Dartmoor, I can't believe it.

Seems clear to me EU (Bussels) you snooze = you loose.
I will just stay isolated in my village in Bavaria for longer until supplies firm up. No problem there for me.

So now we have had a month of full Brexit - to sum up:
1) We have had better vaccine rollout, but an almighty row about vaccines movements around the world
2) Irish sea border gotten so bad that somebody got out their spray cans and started spraying threats on walls and Mr Gove shat his pants do they stopped checking trucks
3) meanwhile British Government export for fish requires 71 pages of docs per lorry
www.bbc.com
4) EU bans lead in ammunition and we found out we are still required to obey these rules cos we agreed to comply with this.
5) and British government advising UK firms to move to Europe so they can continue to trade with their customers.
6) US haven’t given us the promised fantastic free trade deal promised by Mr Trump
7) we have formerly applied to join the Pacific Rim Trading Partnership. But appreciate Boris did Latin and Greek, but he might want to look at a globe.
9) Pan African Free trade area started on 1st January 2021 giving easy movement of goods and people right across the continent of Africa
10) and a year after Covid started British Government still arguing about putting in place some form of quarantine for people arriving in UK. And we have pretty much the highest death rate per head of population in the World - certainly the highest of the major countries.
Still have yet to find any positives. Oh yes there is one - we have plenty of clients wanting funding to move operations out of the UK.

Your like the ex wife who cant move on with life, constantly stewing in a pot of sadness.
Move on and look forward, unlike yourself i feel optimistic about the future and im looking forward to some sunshine and a fresh start
And some sort of truth drug so he starts seeing the world as it actually is.
There was nowt' wrong with a common market as it started off, Then we got mission creep.
Brexit 'teething problems' endemic and could ruin us, say UK businesses
Ease of trading is key measure of success, say cross-channel businesses, not lack of lorry traffic

Brexit 'teething problems' endemic and could ruin us, say UK businesses
Ease of trading is key measure of success, say cross-channel businesses, not lack of lorry traffic
The Food and Drink Federation (FDF) says the issue has been compounded by a lack of notice and sheer lack of experience of customs officials on both sides of the border
Says it all ! ... it will get better !
