Poland thought it had turned the page of the Covid-19 epidemic, but the verdict handed down by the Belgian justice this week it returned to the time of the vaccine race. The pharmaceutical company Pfizer attacked Warsaw in 2023 for failing to honour its contract to buy vaccines. And the sentence is severe: Poland now owes 1.3 billion euros to the American company.
A court in Belgium this Wednesday sentenced Poland and Romania to pay the biotechnology company Pfizer/BioNTech up to 1.9 billion euros and accept the doses of vaccines against covid-19 commissioned during the pandemic. Specifically, the Polish authorities will have to pay 1.3 billion, while the Romanian amount exceeds 600 million. The decision is not final, so both parties can still appeal.
There is another installment in the dispute between the Polish government and Pfizer regarding COVID-19 vaccines.
The European Commission denies liability for the consequences of the judgment against Poland. The case relates to Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccines.
