"Why don't they give samples of the new stran of the virus to the people making the vaccines so they can alter in before it gets out of control.
Why should they"
As OP says... So they can modify the vaccine. I'm sure all the pharmaceutical companies have access to samples and data and continual investigations are being carried out. Issue is the virus is a moving target so they may be constantly playing catch up. |

They have been in dialogue and research upon the new variants since last year, as it's an intelligent approach for them to start. Newer research has been showing the efficacy of the vaccines against the new variants, including some this week. |

"And once they have a vaccine for this new strain another new strain will be along just afterwards"
But that's just the same as the flu so that's why the flu vaccine is rolled out every year.

"There is talk of a third jab in autumn of a combined Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccine as a booster."
Then a fourth vaccination at Xmas as the next year vaccinations start with the fifth vaccination a few weeks after for the double jab |
