Antony Blinken on Health Care

 

 


Don't tie access to COVID vaccines to geopolitics

Various countries, including China, have been engaged in so-called vaccine diplomacy. Of course, sometimes this diplomacy comes with strings attached, and certain requests are made. I think that's deeply unfortunate because we shouldn't tie the distribution or access to vaccines to politics or to geopolitics. This needs to be done by everyone who's able to do it, because it's in the overall interest of humanity.

COVID: Ensure that a crisis like this won't happen again

The pandemic has defined lives--our lives--for more than a year. To beat it back, we need governments, scientists, businesses, and communities around the world working together. At the same time, we need to make sure we learn the right lessons and make the right investments in global health security, including tools to predict, prevent, and stop pandemics, and a firm global commitment to share accurate and timely information, so that a crisis like this never happens again.
