Vaccination programmes have presented logistical challenges for many countries, including infrastructure, temperature requirements and workforce constraints. Approval processes vary from country to country, affecting the speed at which vaccines are rolled out. And then there’s the issue of equipment. As just one example, in Japan, a shortage of specialist syringes meant millions of doses of the Pfizer vaccine had to be thrown out in February.

Vaccination programmes have presented logistical challenges for many countries, including infrastructure, temperature requirements and workforce constraints. At the geopolitical level, concerns about “vaccine nationalism” are growing. Governments have been under pressure to secure doses for their citizens, and many hedged their bets with multiple suppliers to ensure they could supply their own populations.

NAIROBI, March 11 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Charities in Africa slammed rich nations on Thursday for blocking efforts to waive patents for COVID-19 vaccines, saying this would prolong the pandemic for years in poorer nations and push millions across the continent deeper into poverty.
More than 40 charities, including Amnesty International and Christian Aid, said Wednesday s move by Western nations to prevent generic or other manufacturers making more vaccines in poorer nations was an affront on people s right to healthcare.
Peter Kamalingin, Oxfam International s Africa director, said sub-Saharan Africa - 14% of the global population - had received only 0.2% of 300 million vaccine doses administered worldwide.
