I'm looking for some help to research how much the UK has invested in the development and production of the COVID-19 vaccine. Does anyone have any information on this? I'm interested to know how much the UK has contributed to the effort in developing the vaccine, and how it compares to investments from other countries. Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.
