Covid-19 vaccination campaigns have turned into a dog-eat-dog competition internationally as shortages of the coronavirus vaccine have caused some nations to fend for themselves, trying to secure as many doses as possible.
Only a few weeks ago, the arrival of the first batches of the Covid-19 vaccine in each country was cause for jubilation. Today, the procurement of more doses has caused bickering among some.
British-Swedish pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca had promised in early January to supply 80 million doses of its vaccine to the European Union in the first quarter of 2021.

Israel’s defence ministry said Sunday that it would send 5,000 coronavirus vaccine doses to the Palestinian Authority to inoculate medical personnel, following global calls for Israel to ensure Palestinians are vaccinated.
“I confirm we are going to send 5,000 vaccines to medical teams in the Palestinian Authority,” a spokesperson for Defence Minister Benny Gantz told AFP.
The Jewish state has launched an aggressive coronavirus vaccine campaign on Israeli territory, an effort widely regarded as the world’s fastest per capita.

What made the development of the COVID-19 vaccine unique in history
It’s the fastest-developed vaccine ever here’s how we pulled it off.
To say that 2020 has revolved around the pandemic would probably be quite true. But 2021 is shaping up to be all about our answer to the virus, in the form of a vaccine. At least one vaccine has been approved for use in the EU and, although there are many candidates in the works, none of these were developed in what you’d call a ‘traditional’ timeline. We’ve had to wait a whole year, but that’s still a record-breaking speed for this class of substances.
