"Had the vaccines administered so far (~3.9bn) been distributed simply by population, #Africa would have 655m vaccines to administer. That would have been enough to fully vaccinate about 24% of the population now”.

Don't miss this event tomorrow - 28th July - to learn more about the #globalpublicinvestment concept and discuss how it could be a game changer for the future of #development partnerships.
In this podcast @SanushaNaidu & @arinamuresan call for strengthened #African strategies towards #China. That's exactly what we've been working on providing a starting point for - a cross-continental "blueprint", with crucial strategic recommendations

Can the relationship between #African countries and #China be described as a "stronghold" by China? What more can #African countries demand from the relationship? Read our #blueprint for a cross-continental Africa-China strategy to find out #agency

Interesting #thread explaining why the term #VaccineDiplomacy must be avoided.
-- "It's often used to imply competition - though in the past it referred to collaboration."
-- "It's often used to differentiate #China🇨🇳 #India🇮🇳 or other #SSC providers from traditional donors." https://twitter.com/DevReimagined/status/1419505811605180418
"Today’s 1.3bn Africans and those of the future are entitled to a carbon neutral future abroad and at home."

Why is the term "vaccine diplomacy" problematic? In a @Diplomat_APAC article @RosieRoserver lays out 5 reasons:
1⃣ It implies vaccines are sold/donated for strategic reasons - not efficacy;
2⃣It implies sales/donations are one-offs - not built on existing relationships

Better late than never: Can #China help #Kenya break the 2% wall? Our trade analyst @PAnam_tradelaw reflects on how, having responded decisively to avoid overwhelming health systems, #Kenya is suffering from global #vaccine supply shortages & what next. https://chinaafricaproject.com/analysis/better-late-than-never-can-china-help-kenya-break-the-2-vaccine-wall/
"There needs to be some guarantee that [countries and organisations] will buy volumes of vaccines from Africa."
Great to see @JNkengasong reiterating the recommendation for local procurement targets that we made in our decolonising #globalhealth report.

The role of #COVAX should never have been to enable “charity” or self-interest - it should have been to distribute #vaccines globally. Our CEO @hmryder argues in @scmp that #vaccine equity is possible if #COVAX is for all countries - not just poorer ones. https://www.scmp.com/comment/opinion/article/3138065/why-much-world-facing-covid-19-vaccine-famine?module=perpetual_scroll&pgtype=article&campaign=3138065
"Whilst #China’s role in #Kenya’s COVID-19 response has relatively delayed, there are still avenues where China can assist." @DevReimagined https://developmentreimagined.com/2021/06/04/better-late-than-never-can-china-help-kenya-break-the-2-vaccine-wall/#
In her presentation, @LeahLynch_China emphasized the need to make health system supplies locally owned and supporting local manufacturers to make these supplies accessible for all.
