Is Vaccine Nationalism Undermining the Global Economic Recovery?
Senior industry leaders share their insights
It has been 2 years since COVID-19 first struck, leaving a devastating trail in its wake. A report by the International Chamber of Commerce has warned that letting the developing world fall behind could cost the global economy US$9.2 trillion. Although advanced economies have committed to sharing resources, recent figures show that six times as many booster jabs have been given out in high-income countries compared to first jabs in low and mid-income countries.
This digital webinar, hosted by the Financial Times and in partnership with the ONE Campaign, explores the issues facing the pandemic response in developing countries and what high-income countries can do to accelerate the recovery process in these regions. Our panel of experts discuss how achieving vaccine parity could be a key driver on the road to recovery for the global pandemic.
