Only 5 percent of people in Least Developed Countries have been vaccinated versus more than 70 percent in high income countries. \nThis is unacceptable and not only leaves billions of people unfairly exposed to the virus but jeopardizes hard-won gains in the fight against the pandemic as mutations and variants continue to occur\, people continue to suffer and die\, and economic losses continue to mount. \nRecognizing that no one is safe until we are all safe – a reality further underscored by the rise of the omicron variant of COVID-19 – our only respite from the global pandemic is to successfully ensure vaccine access in all corners of the world\, for everyone\, everywhere.\n \n Concept Note\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Take a New Year's Resolution: Stand for #VaccineEquity\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Social Media Kit\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Discussion\n \n \n \n \n \n The discussions at the High-Level Meeting will be guided by the following questions: \n\nWhat is the state of play in vaccine production and supply against the global need?\nWhat are the constraints in vaccine production\, distribution and administration of vaccines in different countries and regions?\nWhat are the technical\, financial and other arrangements needed to ensure that vaccines are available for everyone everywhere by the end of 2022?\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Letter from the President \n \n \n \n \n \n Letter-from-the-PGA-Galvanising-Momentum-for-Universal-Vaccination-Summary\nDownload here \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n Letter-from-the-PGA-New-date-for-the-HLTD-on-Vaccine-Equity\nDownload here \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n Final-Concept-Note-GMUV-25-February-2022\nDownload here \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n HLTD-on-Vaccine-Equity-Provisional-Program-v1\nDownload here \n  URL:/pga/76/event/hlmvaccineequity/ LOCATION:NY CATEGORIES:PGA Events END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
