Freeland, Invest in Global Vaccine Equity!
The budget is just around the corner and we have an opportunity to prevent the next variant by showing leadership in global health by investing in global vaccine equity.
Please write an email to federal Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland asking her to invest in global vaccine equity.
Vaccine inequity prolongs the pandemic, allowing more sophisticated variants to emerge, like the devastating wave of Omicron, and continues to widen global inequality. The next variant is preventable if we act now.
To end the pandemic here, we need to end it everywhere – and that means meeting the commitments and promises Canada has made on achieving global vaccination rates of 70% by mid-2022.
Canada can lead by investing its fair share in COVAX and the ACT-Accelerator.
