What happened to corona vaccines?

In Lithuania, as befits a nook, there is silence. Once a month we get a thousand - another doses of the vaccine, which, as Nausėda says, we will vaccinate everyone in a month - another. How did Nausėda work in the bank if he didn’t do so well with arithmetic? It is no coincidence that "Kauno diena" complains that money disappears in ATMs and we no longer find persons at fault ... In real Europe, banks and ATMs work normally, and people ask inconvenient  questions about vaccines.

 "In fact, it would be interesting to find out who is responsible for not investing enough in vaccines, not ordering enough of them, and not negotiating smart enough so that the manufacturers are now morally dodgy but legally clean. One would like to know whether unnecessary resources were saved during the contract negotiations. Politicians have been asserting for days that they did not take part. Who was actually there? 
It's about creating a plan of what is possible - and what is not. It is important to sound out which legal and political means can be used to increase the pressure on manufacturers, should delays and delivery bottlenecks not only be due to production-related reasons, but should above all be based on profit maximization. Last but not least, the pharmaceutical companies should be reminded of the moral obligation to have to try "everything humanly possible" (Angela Merkel) after massive funding from EU and German federal funds and because of the global emergency in order to deliver promised quantities. Here politics can facilitate cooperation, offer incentives and act as a pushing force and mediator. 
Nonetheless, what is needed now is a clear admission of what went wrong. And then the will to learn from mistakes, to do better and to save what can still be saved now."
