Hi everyone,
In spite of some good news that the U.S. would share more of its excess vaccines, there is still so much work to be done as most of the world does not have access to the COVID-19 Vaccine. To do 5.9% of the world is fully vaccinated and many countries have not seen a single dose.
Would you kindly click this link to get some collective Twitter action out there?
The world still needs to finish waiving patents on the COVID-19 Vaccine asap and drug companies that developed the vaccine (especially those that received government funding to do so), need to participate in technology sharing programs to help scale up production. Too many people have died already. Some posit that we'll probably have more people die of COVID after the vaccine has been developed than before, which is especially shameful/tragic. We can/must do better.
Kindly click here to tweet a message out there.
And if you're comfortable, I would encourage you to echo these demands and share this point on the google maps page of Moderna (and feel free to leave a 1-star review).
Drug Companies:
Key points:
Participate in the WHO mRNA Technology Transfer hub. As a company, you received a billion dollars to develop the COVID-19 vaccine and also had liability protections. The world desperately needs this technology to save lives and truly end this pandemic. Do the right thing.
Lastly, do you have a connection to any celebrities or people who can really amplify our message that we could get on board? Email me at covidvaccine4all@gmail.com and let me know.
Very lastly, two good podcasts on the topic:

Okay, I promise this is the last point:
Donate to COVAX to help provide more vaccines to those in need: https://www.gavi.org/donate
With gratitude,
Nate
