‘Global solidarity’ needed, to find affordable, accessible COVID-19 vaccine

United Nations "In the race to end the coronavirus pandemic, the UN chief reminded a virtual medical conference on Thursday that “a vaccine, by itself, is not enough”- “We need global solidarity to ensure that every person, everywhere, has access”, Secretary-General António Guterres said in a video message to the Global Vaccine Summit, convened to find and fund collective solutions for COVID-19-related vaccines and to strengthen routine immunization commitments and resources for other preventable diseases. COVID-19, the greatest public health crisis of the generation, has skyrocketed vaccines to the top of the global agenda."
