    ‘If a vaccine really does mark the end of the crisis, it will be a particularly perverse tragedy if the very nations that have failed up until now manage to turn it into a zero-sum game in which the country with the most money buys the most vaccine’

    "Before spending another $10 trillion dollars on the consequences of the next wave, we estimate that the world will need to spend at least $100 billion on new tools, especially any new vaccines that are developed"-

    🙏 for highlighting the need for the COVID-19 response to invest in other important things in people lives: a job or stable source of income, food on the table, a home, safety, autonomy and a loving family.

    Thoughtful piece highlighting the systemic approach needed to tackle the inequalities that create communities and groups especially vulnerable to COVID19 ⬇️ As so helpfully highlights in her work, housing security and appropriate support are key to public health.

    Quotation: "A rights-based combination prevention approach that addresses the structural drivers of inequality of risk and inequity of responses is as crucial to COVID-19 as it remains for HIV. We call for measures that include: a people's vaccine;3 a moratorium on debt repayments and progressive taxation to enable a mass roll-out of social protection, food, and income support programmes; removal of punitive laws that block access to health and social services; and civil society expertise and meaningful representation in COVID-19 governance and accountability structures4 as key components of COVID-19 combination prevention."

    Pharma corps have a long history of using tax dollars to make new medicines people can't afford. We can't let that happen with Covid. This pandemic can only end if everyone, everywhere has access to affordable vaccines, medicines & testing.

    Thank you my friend. I fully agree that leadership is action, not a title or a position.

    Leadership is not about how many followers you have, it’s about how many leaders you create! This was what my father always said. This is exactly what personifies
