  • Coronavirus l’UE bloque l’exportation de vaccins Astra Zeneca depuis l’Italie 250.000 doses concernées

L'Italie, avec le feu vert de Bruxelles, est le premier pays européen à bloquer l'exportation de vaccins produits sur le continent. Il s'agit de 250.000 doses produites par AstraZeneca à Anagni, dans le Latium, qui devaient être exportées en Australie.

L'argument n'avait pas convaincu Bruxelles, qui rappelait que trois autres usines étaient mentionnées dans le contrat signé avec l'Union européenne (UE).

Le mécanisme de surveillance des exportations avait été mis sur pied à la hâte fin janvier, en plein bras de fer de la Commission européenne et d'AstraZeneca, firme pharmaceutique accusée de favoriser le Royaume-Uni dans ses livraisons de vaccins, au détriment du marché européen.

Le dispositif prévoit que les États exercent eux-mêmes ce contrôle par le biais de leurs douanes nationales en examinant les demandes d'autorisation d'exportation soumises par les laboratoires, avant de solliciter l'aval de la Commission.

On Feb. 16 a rocket attack on US -led forces in northern Iraq killed a civilian contractor and injured a USA service member. Washington has blamed these on Shiite militias attempting to pressure the USA into withdrawing from the country.

L'exécutif européen a le dernier mot puisque l'État membre est tenu de se prononcer sur la demande d'autorisation conformément à l'avis de la Commission, souligne-t-elle.

Le cabinet du premier ministre, Mario Draghi, s'est refusé à tout commentaire.

À ce stade, 1,51 million d'Italiens ont été vaccinés, essentiellement les membres du personnel sanitaire et les personnes âgées, et 4,84 millions de doses ont été administrées, pour une population totale de quelque 60 millions.

Cette semaine, l'UE avait indiqué à l'Organisation mondiale du commerce (OMC) avoir déjà approuvé 150 requêtes d'exportations de vaccins contre le coronavirus depuis le lancement de son mécanisme de contrôle, et n'en avoir rejeté encore aucune.
