USA's Effort to Provide Vaccines to Low-Income Countries

 

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/27/2021 -- The COVID-19 vaccination programs have dominated the news headlines in recent months, especially in the context of countries where there is less structured healthcare provision and access to treatment is less than easy. While much of the western world works towards getting entire populations vaccinated, countries such as India are seeing infection rates spiraling out of control. However, the new Biden-Harris administration has been one of the first to recognize that steps need to be taken to ensure much more equal access to vaccines. As a result, this month the current administration announced support for waiving intellectual property protections for COVID-19 vaccines in the hope that this would make them more accessible in low-income countries. Of course, this hasn't pleased everyone - there are many countries in Europe that object to the waiver and the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Associations said American support for it was 'disappointing.' However, those who are directly on the front lines of fighting the virus in countries where it is out of control - such as the Medicines Sans Frontieres - have said the waiver could be a game changer.
