this is unlikely - COVAX has doses to deliver in Feb, up and running who gavi rajpanjabi

Of course the highest bidder will get it first. Fear monger continually then gouge for the supposed cure.

That's probably true. The countries that paid for the vaccine development are having troubles getting the vaccine themselves.

With the new variants. Will it even matter?

Again?!? Will this entire continent continue to get the fuzzy end of the lolly-pop forever? What the honest hell?

America is Africa / Mexico. Who cares if Africans haft to wait in line. I'm a white American and I'm in the tear 3 grouping for the Covid-19 vaccine. I'll haft to wait to. Black people cry when they haft to wait in line. To bad.

I wonder how many are willing to roll the dice on early death or suffer post vaccination injuries?

Wait a second - haven't you and the rest of the news media been saying for months that it's raging here in the U.S., that we have more deaths than any place else? Doesn't it make sense to vaccinate first where the virus is doing the most harm?

Then rich countries will have to deal with more and more new variants coming in, messing up our herd immunity. We need to vaccinate the world to save ourselves. Viruses don't care about your borders.

they can have my dose cause im not taking it.

Never underestimate the resilience of Africa and Africans

The covid vaccines will generate over $1 trillion in revenue$ for big donor$ and big pharma. All paid for by taxpayer$. It’s worth a shutdown to them.

Y’all do know that the vaccine only provides antibodies for a limited period of time.........we will have to do this every year. Or do I owe someone an apology?

Until everyone is happy, no one is happy. Until everyone is prosperous, no one is prosperous. Until everyone can read, no one can read. Until everyone can vote, no one can vote. Until everyone can live, no one can live. Until everyone can die, no one can die. Until everyone can

😳

Under Biden's direction you're probably correct

What’s stopping them from doing the same thing as other countries already vaccinating?

I’ll give a shit after I’ve received mine, thanks

That’s unacceptable

Is there any vaccine that has been widely inoculated at like a 90% threshold worldwide?

Seems accurate. Seems systematic.
