A Brussels court on April 1 ordered Poland and Romania to pay the remaining balance for COVID-19 vaccines ordered from the pharmaceutical group Pfizer/BioNTech, worth EUR 1.3 billion and EUR 600 million, respectively, according to a court statement quoted by AFP, as reported by local news agency Agerpres.
