EU warns Hungary against use of Russia’s COVID-19 vaccine

So Commission spokesman just stated that it is important that the safety of the vaccine is reviewed by EMA before it is administered to citizens. I agree with that - I think that we have to make sure that vaccine is safe before large scale vaccination. I hope that Sputnik vaccine goes through EMA reviewing as well.

And they in Hungary don't want that. Meaning, they are find testing it themselves. This is one of the key problems with the EU structure. It keeps pushing itself and its rules on the member countries. You cannot force Hungary to embrace these rules. Why not suggest/advice, and not push and threaten? This works much better. After all, it is their health and their problem.
