Hi John,
It’s a great relief that priority groups in the UK have now had their first dose but while the vaccine programme gathers pace here, countries in the global south are struggling to access doses. Less than 2% of Covid-19 vaccines administered globally so far have been given in sub-Saharan Africa, leaving millions of healthcare workers risking their lives in the fight against the virus. [1]
As pharmaceutical corporations hold their AGMs in the coming weeks, we are teaming up with our friends from Just Treatment, STOPAIDS, Frontline AIDS and HealthGap to host a People's Vaccine Alliance event with healthcare workers, vaccine volunteers and patients from around the world.

We have invited the CEOs of some of the major vaccine companies to attend this event to bring the demands of affected communities directly to the companies.
Through the monopolies they hold and their refusal to widely share the knowledge of how to make the vaccines, pharmaceutical companies are restricting the scale up of supply that we need to ensure that everyone, everywhere can get access.
Please come along too and show your solidarity to healthcare workers, covid survivors, vulnerable patients and trial volunteers as we demand a People’s Vaccine not a profit vaccine.

** Help ensure Covid-19 vaccines are available to everyone, everywhere
------------------------------------------------------------
It’s vitally important that Covid-19 vaccine patents are suspended during the pandemic, and for big pharma to share their know-how globally, as the best way of ensuring there are enough vaccines for everyone everywhere.
Regular gifts give us the long-term stability to plan effective campaigns and the flexibility to respond to crises like these.
