(Sky News) Britons have been assured that “an administrative hurdle” will be “straightened out” following concerns millions could miss out on travel to the EU this summer as their COVID jabs aren’t recognised.
It has been reported that up to five million Britons will not qualify for the EU’s vaccine passport scheme because the AstraZeneca shots they received were manufactured in India.
These doses are not recognised by the EU’s drug regulator, the European Medicines Agency (EMA), and so effectively bars those who have received India-made vaccines from using their vaccinated status to travel to the bloc.
