Call to Action! Dose Sharing for Global Vaccine Access

COVID-19 Vaccines

This week, advocates that included partners of the Pandemic Action Network sent two separate letters to U.S. President Joe Biden and U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson — leaders of two countries with some of the highest potential vaccination coverage in the world — urging them to share their countries’ excess doses with the rest of the globe. Donating surplus doses of COVID-19 vaccine through COVAX is the fastest way to give low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) access to sufficient amounts of COVID-19 vaccines for their populations to reach herd immunity.
