Two senior European Union officials said on Wednesday they expect vaccine plants in Europe to produce 3.6 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines, as part of global output of 20 billion doses in 2022. "We are going to produce in Europe much more than what is needed," said one of the EU officials during a press conference.

lants in the EU will make 3.6 billion COVID-19 doses in 2022, up from about 3 billion this year, the official said, adding: "This is much more than what we need to vaccinate and give a booster to our population".
