I imagine that that was a pretty not-fun time for AstraZeneca.
EU: AstraZeneca's says that their production isn't meeting quotas. Sounds questionable. They must be smuggling some to the UK. Let's raid their Belgian production facilities.
Also EU: No, that didn't turn anything up. Maybe they're hiding some in their Italian production facilities.
EU: Darn, they weren't smuggling them there either.
UK leadership: AstraZeneca's been raided by the EU. Let's do a military raid on their Dutch production facilities.
AstraZeneca: We told you, we're having production problems. Can you lunatics all just leave us alone so that we can just focus on production?
