The majority of the world may not have access to the vaccines for a couple of years.
Rich countries like the US are pursuing a vaccines-only pandemic strategy, hoarding supplies instead of implementing public health measures and sharing the vaccines. Unacceptable.

Experts and media keep trying to hold up countries like the US, UK and Israel as an example of success. But it is wrong to highlight them without speaking about their role in vaccine nationalism, which is prolonging the pandemic around the world. https://twitter.com/ashishkjha/status/1385657145941708802">https://twitter.com/ashishkjh...

Remember: The pandemic doesn& #39;t end when we secure our own safety. We must keep fighting for the lives of everyone around the world.
