A majority of people in G7 countries believe that governments should ensure pharmaceutical companies share the formulas and technology of their vaccines, according to new polling from the People’s Vaccine Alliance. In a briefing on Wednesday, the alliance said that an average of seven in 10 people across G7 countries want the government to ensure vaccine know-how is shared, the poll said. Respondents were asked whether they believe that pharmaceutical companies should be fairly compensated for developing vaccines, but should not hold a monopoly on the vaccines. A total of 74 percent in the United Kingdom want the government to prevent monopolies, with those from all political backgrounds supporting intervention.
