COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Danish health officials said Monday that 1.1 million excess COVID-19 vaccines will be discarded in the coming weeks because their expiration date is near, and efforts to donate them to developing countries have failed.
Statens Serum Institut, a government agency that maps the spread of COVID-19 in Denmark, said the epidemic in the Scandinavian country “is currently under control, and the vaccine coverage in the Danish population is high.”
Around 81% of Denmark’s population of 5.8 million has received two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, while nearly 62% have received a booster shot.
The agency said that Denmark, like most countries across the world, has a surplus of vaccines.
“Now there are global challenges with the donation of COVID-19 vaccines, (among others) because for the first time during the pandemic, a situation has arisen where the supply of vaccines exceeds the demand,” the agency, known in Denmark as SSI, said in a statement. “This also applies to Denmark.”
“However, in light of declining demand and lack of roll-out capacity and willingness to be vaccinated in developing countries, it has been difficult for Denmark and other EU countries to find recipient countries for the excess doses,” it said.

COVID the best way to BURN MONEY
Dumbasses. Just get new date labels. After all, it doesn’t seem to matter since, for a lot folks, it was a waste of time to get anyway.
Aint no one want your death shot. Myocarditis and an out of control autoimmune response I can get anywhere!
Just saw a TV news article last night that NC has 850k doses about expire and be destroyed.
If they have already been paid for by taxpayer $$, who cares? Go ahead, destroy. Pharm will simply come up with another scam and the revenue stream re-states — along with the campaign contributions to the politicos pushing this crappola.
No! They can be remarketed as heart medicine! (evil grin)
Now those poor people are going to have to fly all the way to Haiti and hire hookers if they want to expose themselves to mysterious blood pathogens
