    No European country has to wait for the EMA approval. If a country wants to do its own emergency approval that´s possible without any problem. There is no advantage in this case thanks to Brexit.

    Die Stadt Brügge/Belgien hat ein Vertrag in ihrem Archiv. Dieser stammt aus dem Jahr 1666. Darin verspricht der Englische König, das die Belgier auf Ewig in brittischen Gewässern fischen dürfen. Der englische König war zuvor in Belgien in Exil. Dieser Vertrag war nie wichtig, weil UK in der EU war und alle Fischer aus allen EU Ländern vor der UK fischen durften. Die Belgier haben jetzt gesagt, das wenn UK die EU verlässt automatisch der Vertrag von 1666 in Kraft tritt.

    The fact that the UK is first with a vaccine has bugger all to do with no longer being in the EU.
    Yes, we are no longer in the EU, but we are in the transition period, which means that the UK has to follow EU law. Additionally, Hungary, which is a full EU member, has also approved a vaccine.
    We always have been able to make our own rules and approve our own products - just as long as we don’t try to export them to the EU until they meet EU rules. When will people understand that the whole ‘we want our sovereignty back’ was bullshit, a political tool, propaganda.

    hmm - a vaccine developed in Germany by a so very smart Turkish couple and produced in Belgium (as far as I've heard) - what an impressive documentation of the British Brexit-"freedom" ;-) ;-) for me the possibility of authorising this vaccine in the UK (and soon somewhere else also) is much more an impressive documentation for international cooperation than any isolationistic policy...

    What Brexiteers don't talk about, but Johnson sure thinks about: The vaccine production plants are located in the EU. So there should be a working supplychain after Brexit if they want to be "first". Futhermore, all the other european countries also recieved their first doses of the vaccine, so there is really no need to be jealous about this quick approval.

    That is nonsense. Johnson rushed the MHRA to authorise Comirnaty just to use that for political propaganda. The reality is that Comirnaty has a marketing authorisation under exceptional circumstances in the UK while it has a regular authorisation in the EU. And the other thing is that UK still tries to influence the EU medicines market over Northern Ireland. As NI is de facto still a part of the EU, companies with seats in NI can still attain marketing authorisations in the EU.

  • @MHG790
    @MHG790 3 года назад +1

    Funfact: Most of the EMA procedures and guidelines were developed at least partially under the leadership of the MHRA. That is also the reason why they will keep most of the regulations and just put an MHRA-Sticker on it. (and that is a good thing as in my opinion EMA is really a good system.)

    • @MHG790
      @MHG790 3 года назад

      And btw: It is not that the companies are just sitting around and wait for the approval. Since the approval is very likely, they are probably just proceeding with the logistic actions, wich - in my opinion) is probably the bigger challenge and bottleneck than the approval process.

    Even if the British fishermen and women were allowed to catch more fish, they couldn't sell all of it.

    • @Soordhin

      Well, 60 to 80% of the fish caught in UK waters is sold to the EU anyway, therefore it might be extremely self defeating to go for a hard brexit to help fishing (and destroying the automotive and other industries) only to realise that it is useless to catch fish if you cannot sell it.

      Me, too. I'm asthmatic and really got a tendency to get stuck with colds, bronchitis or even pneumonia (had three of those, really not eager to catch another or something equally as jarring). Luckily didn't catch Corona (yet, and I definitely hope I wouldn't in the future) and have been super cautious when going out of the house. I'll definitely get vaccined. Even if it wouldn't be for me and if it hopefully keeps people from spreading the virus - my parents are both over 60, my dad's diaphragm isn't working properly - hence, both would fall in the group of possible high risk patients. My grandma, too, she's over 90, bedridden and she hadn't really shaken a lung infection she has had last year.
      So, yeah, definitely going to do everything to keep myself and others safe, including getting a vaccine to this damn virus!

    Hi Richie, yes we can be happy for this breakthrough to combat this pandemic.
    I guess, here in Germany most people have noticed that the Brexiteers are shouting the loudest, whenever their goal seems to be in peril, often contradicting themselves. The UK government had manoevered themselves into the corner and were under the attack of the far right either from brexit achievements and anti lockdown campaigning, as we can watch overhere as well. Hancock being among the mostly critisized ministers rushed for a flight forward to fight the opponents in his own rowes. They cannot vote down the new covid regulations now. So the energency law for the permission of the vaccine according to EMA made sense so far, as to save the government first against Tory rebellion.
    For us in Germany, as for any other member of the EU, this could have been done as well. Therefore it is an emergency regulation. However, with regard to the solidarity principle, we run better with waiting for the common release after the logistic has been installed properly. Tests have shown, how much effort is required to do this as smoothly as possible.
    So if some nationalists need this " victory " for their ego, well Jeff Taylor may raise his mug. The bitter medicine would be a no deal scenario and troubles again in Northern Ireland.

      @@c.norbertneumann4986 Durch die frühe Zulassung in England werden voraussichtlich nicht mehr Menschen gerettet, als im Rest Europas. Denn England kriegt dadurch anfangs nicht mehr Impfdosen zugeliefert. Außerdem wird der Impfstoff in EU Ländern produziert. Es kann zu erheblichen Einschränkungen bei der Belieferung mit dem Impfstoff kommen. Die frühe Zulassung war hauptsächlich eine politische Entscheidung. Durch die Notfallzulassung in UK haften auch die Unternehmen für nix mehr, was Auwirkungen auf das vertrauen in den Impfstoff und die Zulassung hat.
