 "AstraZeneca")
Australia has asked the European Commission to review its decision to block a shipment of AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine, as countries importing EU-made shots fear a potential impact on supplies.
The EU executive backed Italy's decision to block a shipment of 250,000 doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine to Australia, European officials said, in the first refusal of an export request since a mechanism to monitor vaccine flows was established in late January.
The move was a reaction to AstraZeneca's delays in delivering vaccines to the EU. The company has said it can supply only about 40 million doses by the end
