Did you know that on the 31st of March 2021, 0.1% of Covid vaccines administrated worldwide had gone to low income countries? While 86%of doses had gone to high and upper income countries? That estimates show that many countries in South East Asia, Africa and South America won't achieve widespread vaccination coverage until late 2022 or even 2023 while in Europe this is planned for later this year? You guessed it, in today's episode, we're talking about the hot potato in most of our lives these days: Covid 19 vaccines and most specifically vaccine inequality or vaccine apatheid as one of our guests called it.With our guests, Mthandazo Ndlovu from Oxfam South Africa, Aruna Kashyap from Human Rights Watch and Marcin Rodzinka from Global Health Advocates, we discuss how rich nations are hoarding more vaccines that they need, what concretely needs to happen to allow everyone to have access to vaccine and why Europe is the bad guy here by blocking a waiver on intellectual property rights for vaccines.Whether you're a newbie on the vaccine issue or an expert, this one's for you.
