UK Vaccine Speedy Approval by Human Medicines Regulations Not Brexit

The UK Health Secretary, Matt Handcock, told Times Radio in an interview “We all do the same safety checks and the same processes, but we have been able to speed up how they’re done because of Brexit.” Other government officials took to Twitter to also praise Brexit for the expeditious authorization process including the UK leader of the House of Commons, Jacob Rees-Mogg, a Health Minister, Nadine Dorries, and a member of Parliament, Michael Fabricant.
