When a Covid-19 vaccine is found, equal access must be given to poorer countries
It makes sense for the world to work collaboratively. The imperative to do this has been underscored by the unholy scramble over rRemdesivir earlier this year, when America bought up almost all the available supply from drug company Gilead, leading to rationing in the NHS and throughout Europe.
Let's face it, when a safe and effective vaccine is found, supply will vastly outstrip demand and the remdesivir debacle will look like a stroll in the park. Who will oversee the mad scramble that'll ensue, and ensure that the vaccine is distributed in an orderly way to governmental health agencies and healthcare organisations, and that poorer countries get their equitable share?
