Okay, let's go for the full quote: "The vaccine costs around US$3 to US$4 per dose to manufacture.[39] On 17 December 2020, a tweet by the Belgian Budget State Secretary revealed that the European Union (EU) would pay €1.78 (US$2.16) per dose, The New York Times suggesting the lower price might relate to factors including investment in vaccine production infrastructure by the EU" [85]" Unfortunately [85] is a paywalled New York Times article so I cannot get further clarification. My reading is the EU kicked in money for the production and then paid $2.16 per dose. The Vox link is another fucking paywall. I'll be damned if I'll pay for 5 year old 'news'.
