WHO's COVAX Initiative

The WHO's COVAX Initiative is a global effort to ensure fair access to COVID-19 vaccines for all countries, regardless of income. It pools resources from participating nations to buy and distribute vaccines efficiently, aiming to protect vulnerable populations worldwide. By promoting equitable distribution, COVAX helps prevent the pandemic from worsening in poorer regions, supporting global health and economic recovery. It encourages collaboration between governments, organizations, and manufacturers to make vaccines available universally, emphasizing that controlling the virus everywhere benefits everyone everywhere.
