👁‍🗨With access to health care high on people`s priorities and electorates judging their political leaders on their COVID-19 responses, now could be the best time to campaign for bold health reforms to reach universal health coverage, writes @yates_rob. 🔗sum.uio.no/english/research/…

More on equitable distribution of vaccines from @yates_rob @CHGlobalHealth
The terrible damage that polio inflicted decades ago has been overcome through collaboration - 'wealthy countries making sure that people in poorer countries are vaccinated.’ The way to beat coronavirus is through equitable vaccine distribution, says @yates_rob

Vaccine nationalism is resulting in rich countries procuring quantities multiple times the size of their population. This failure to collectively combat the pandemic poses a threat to global health security, writes @yates_rob chathamhouse.org/2021/02/tim…

As @alanbeattie warned in @FT on 18 Jan, "childish point-scoring" is not helpful to UK's international relations, especially with EU. EU won't be doing the UK any favours as it now considers whether to restrict exports of the Pfizer vaccine from EU-based production facilities
We are leading the way out of this pandemic with over 3 million vaccine doses administered 💉
