Leaders of the 20 biggest economies are debating this weekend how to distribute Covid-19 vaccines, drugs and tests around the world so that poorer countries are not left out as nations look for ways to manage a post-coronavirus recovery.

The leaders are holding a two-day virtual meeting via video-conference due to the pandemic, under the chairmanship of Saudi Arabia, which holds the rotating presidency of the G20 until the end of November.

G20 leaders are concerned that the pandemic might further deepen global divisions between the rich and the poor. China, where the pandemic originated a year ago, also offered to cooperate on vaccines. China has five home-grown candidates for a vaccine undergoing the last phase of trials. While the global economy is recovering from the depths of the crisis earlier this year, momentum is slowing in countries with resurging infection rates, the recovery is uneven and the pandemic is likely to leave deep scars, the International Monetary Fund said in a report for the G20 summit.

Poverty of the soul in the current administration is such a problem for our country. Poor DT.

The President of the United States was actually listening to real science. You have an immune system. If you have health issues, ANY virus can be fatal. If you don't exercise your immune system, the next virus could kill you because you have turned into a hot house flower.

And one of the goals of the great reset (build back better) is a reduction in population, particularly in poorer countries. A vaccine could easily facilitate that. Remember, the vaccine against polio in Africa is actually giving kids polio-financed by rich Davos participant.

it's the year 2020 and Germany is celebrating the defeat of fascism in America. how fucking stunning is that
