Sure the vaccines are made by private companies, but the government strictly controls the process.

The government imposed control on prices (reducing the number of firms, and the investment in vaccines), then later they decided that the vaccines would be produced without including any adjuvants (reducing the yield), they also put in place far more time consuming testing requirements for the vaccines (here at least there could be some justification, but European countries and others seem to do fine without these delays).

If it wasn't for those government steps its unlikely that there would be any vaccine shortage.
