Liz Ortiguera, CEO, PATA, has said that 2.8 Billion people have still not had the first vaccine – some are even medical front-liners. In a recent message, she quoted WHO Foundation, saying, “While people in high-income countries get back to the things they love, many in low-income countries remain restricted and vulnerable to infection. Vaccine inequity puts everyone at risk, with low vaccination rates creating the ideal conditions for new variants of COVID-19 to emerge. We are still seeing 1.5million cases of COVID-19 globally every day.”
