Dr. Patrick Vogt, in the eastern French city of Mulhouse, tweeted video of himself throwing away a partially used flacon of AstraZeneca vaccine, because he’d not been able to find enough volunteers for all the doses before they expired.

On the video, Vogt said he had opened the flacon on a Monday but only been able to find takers for six of its doses by Wednesday afternoon, three days later.
