The good thing is the actual vaccine development was done by Oxford University that has experience and done a good job with the vaccine itself.

Unfortunately, it’s the related stuff, manufacturing, procurement, trials, contract signing, that was done by AZ and they have almost entirely done a horrible job.

They failed for 8 years to get this particular vaccine platform to work, and read some of the other comments, they probably caused more of the infamous string of clinical trial screw ups than AZ.
