Once more, this simply shows how weak EU is and how much it depends on the USA for survival: defense, science, tech.
The entire EU was only able to produce one vaccine: also UK is not in EU anymore, and AstraZeneca is a British-Swedish.
It does not come as a surprise. In decades, they haven't invested any significant money in research and tech, but austerity.
Thousands of EU engineers and scientists moved to the USA to never come back.
EU is now paying an high price. And given their inability to reverse this trend, they will always be at the mercy of other more developed and advanced countries.
