A further $1 billion would go towards supporting readiness and delivery in poorer nations, and $545 million to cover the costs for rolling out donated doses, such as syringes, transportation, and insurance.Berkley expects the next billion doses to take four to five months to deliver, rather than a year for the first billion.
