International Inoculations

Daisy Gemberling '25

 

Globally, 48.8 percent of the populace is either partially or fully vaccinated, equivalent to 3.75 billion individuals. However, there is a clear divide between inoculation programs in various nations.


Many developing countries depend on a vaccine distributing program called Covax. Covax initially promised to administer two billion doses before 2022; this now seems unlikely due to production delays, vaccine stockpiling, and export embargoes. In Corvax’s most recent projection, they estimate that 1.4 billion portions will be accessible before 2022.


Prompting a striking split between different regions, some are attempting to reach their unvaccinated populations with purchased vaccines or vaccines pledged by different organizations and governments.


For further information on vaccine disparities, please look into “Our World in Data.”
