Pfizer this week delivered 4.8 million doses of its Covid vaccine, which is developed alongside German partner BioNTech, to the EU.
This means the EU has taken delivery of around 28 million doses of the two-shot jab, EU officials told the Reuters news agency.
But the bloc is still 10 million doses short of what Pfizer was said to have promised to member states since the rollout began late last year.
EU sources say Pfizer committed to delivering around 3.5 million doses a week from the start of January.
