What happened? Italian PM Giuseppe Conte makes Unexpected decision against Pfizer and AstraZeneca

Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte has announced that he will sue Pfizer and AstraZeneca. According to foreign media, this sudden action of the Prime Minister, comes after the companies have delayed the delivery of vaccines against coronavirus in Italy.

It is learned that among other things he has said that the slowdown in the distribution of vaccines is a serious violation of the agreements and is causing great damage in Italy and other European countries, with direct consequences for the lives and health of citizens.

"Pfizer-Biontech has reported a slowdown in the distribution of programmed doses to EU countries and is penalizing countries that, like Italy, are forced to slow vaccination. If the 60% reduction in doses to be distributed in the first quarter were confirmed, this would mean that 3.4 million doses would be delivered to Italy instead of the 8 million doses. The slowdown in the distribution of vaccines is a serious violation of the agreements and is causing great damage in Italy and other European countries, with direct consequences for the life and health of our citizens, but also for our social and economic structure, which is already "severely affected by a pandemic year," said Conte.
