“We should anticipate how to gradually adapt our vaccination strategy to endemic transmission and gather really precious knowledge about the impact of additional jabs.”

“To date, China has provided more than 1 billion doses of finished and bulk vaccines to over 100 countries and international organizations, and will strive to provide a total of 2 billion doses by the end of this year.”

“We are in a new 'arms' race - to get vaccines into people as quickly as possible - but this is an arms race where the West have a stranglehold on the vaccine supplies.”

“I believe that mandating vaccines for children to appear in school is a good idea. We've done this for decades and decades, requiring polio, measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis vaccinations.”

“We have to balance what we think about vaccinating children in high-income countries with vaccinating the rest of the world, because we need to stop transmission of this virus globally. We're not completely out of the woods and that's why I'm very worried about getting vaccines around the rest of the world, because we need to stop the virus being transmitted and continuing to evolve. That could give us a new variant that is going to be really difficult to deal with.”

“It's our very strong view that given the lack of coverage around the world it's absolutely critical to make a big move like this to get more vaccines into the system as quickly as possible. These vaccines will become available as of August, even as we are pushing out the 80 million doses that have already been announced.”

“As long as this pandemic is raging anywhere in the world, the American people will still be vulnerable. And the United States is committed to bringing the same urgency to international vaccination efforts that we have demonstrated at home. We are sharing these doses not to secure favors or extract concessions. We are sharing these vaccines to save lives and to lead the world in bringing an end to the pandemic, with the power of our example and with our values.”

“This is very problematic [India stopping vaccine exports] as it means unpredictability of our vaccination programmes and a serious risk of not achieving our stated target... on time. Given India's huge challenges, it will be impossible to expect anything soon.”

“[We] came to the conclusion that there is enough evidence of safety and the capacity of the vaccine to prevent severe disease or symptomatic and hospitalized cases up to 79 per cent. The information we have for people over 60 is still very scarce. There is no reason to think that the vaccine would behave differently in this older age group.”

“This afternoon, WHO gave emergency use listing to sign off on Beijing's COVID-19 vaccine, making it the sixth vaccine to receive WHO validation for safety, efficacy and quality. This expands the list of vaccines that COVAX can buy and gives countries confidence to expedite their own regulatory approval and to import and administer a vaccine.”

“If we really want the pandemic to be over, we not only have to vaccinate at home, but vaccinate everywhere. This is the only way to prevent the emergence of variants that could escape our immunity, or affect children more severely. Here, science is racing ahead to provide solutions. Researchers are already working on a pan-coronavirus vaccine that would both vaccinate against the virus that causes Covid-19 and prevent future spillover events.”

“Some terms of the contract have not been respected... the company has not been in a position to come up with a reliable strategy to ensure a timely delivery of doses. We want to make sure there is a speedy delivery of a sufficient number of doses that European citizens are entitled to and which have been promised on the basis of the contract.”

“Included in our plans are also the questions of how reliable the partners, how much a partner has proven that he can deliver, and this is exactly what BioNTech/Pfizer has done. We went through initial difficulties, and the experience of overcoming together difficulties, working hard together and sticking together ... was a very good experience that builds trust. On this trust, I think we can also build the future.”

“Even those countries who have high coverage of vaccines will not be secure because the new variants that may not be stopped by the vaccines we have, will invade the countries that may have even 100% coverage in a few months.”

“The more the virus circulates, the more likely it is that mutations and variants will emerge, which could make our current vaccines ineffective. At the same time, poor countries are being left behind without vaccines and basic medical supplies like oxygen. As we've learned, viruses don't care about borders. We have to vaccinate as many people as possible, everywhere in the world, as quickly as possible. Why wait and watch instead of getting ahead of this?”

“At the beginning of the year, I issued a call for countries to work together to ensure that all countries started vaccinations within the first 100 days of the year. COVAX [the COVID-19 Vaccines Global Access Facility] needs 10 million doses immediately as an urgent stopgap measure so these 20 countries can start vaccinating their health workers and older people within the next two weeks. COVAX is ready to deliver, but we can't deliver vaccines we don't have. Ten million doses is not much and it is not nearly enough, but it is a start.”
