We are living in a COVID-19 vaccine apartheid. At the end of 2021, while the UK was rolling out boosters and nearly 70% of its population had been double or even triple jabbed, just 8.6% of people in Africa had received two doses.

COVID-19 treatments, tests and vaccines have been developed using public funds. Yet big pharma monopolies, backed up by rich country governments, give these companies the power to decide who gets access and at what price.

The Government is putting the profits of private corporations ahead of the patients who need these critical tools. This is costing lives in countries where vaccine access rates are low and COVID-19 treatments are scarce. But it’s also putting lives at risk in the UK.

While large numbers of people remain unvaccinated, there is a greater risk of variants emerging which could make the vaccines less effective. This is dangerous for us all - especially for the clinically vulnerable - and puts even more pressure on the NHS, compromising the wider care available to patients.

During a pandemic, a collaborative global response is essential. The UK Government’s profit-driven approach is costing lives and prolonging the pandemic. Together with clinically vulnerable patients and those who have lost family overseas, we're taking on the government and their friends in the pharmaceutical industry.
