Wake Up to Money: Jab jitters and the Covid-19 recovery

Jab jitters and the Covid-19 recovery

BBC Radio 5 Live - Wake Up to Money, Jab jitters and the Covid-19 recovery

More EU countries pause the AZ jab, but will it hamper their Covid-19 recovery?

Sean looks at why so many countries have pressed pause on the rollout of the AstraZeneca jab despite reassurances that it is safe. And Greggs faces its first loss since the 80s.

The WHO says it's safe, but some European countries have still paused the roll out of the Astrazeneca vaccine while claims a small number of people have suffered blood clots are investigated. Sean asks if the hold-ups will damage confidence and hamper Europe's economic recovery.

Greggs has already warned it's facing its first loss since the company was listed in 1984. What's the pandemic done to our love of pasties and pies?

The Oscar nominations are out. But who's still making movies? And how hard is it to get a film made during a pandemic?
