"The organization that has led the global effort to bring Covid vaccines to poor and middle-income countries will decide this week whether to shut down that project, ending a historic attempt to achieve global health equity with a tacit acknowledgment that the effort fell far short of its goal.
The deliberations reflect the reality that demand for Covid vaccines is waning quickly throughout the world and is near nonexistent in countries that have some of the lowest rates of coverage."

@cyrilpedia This is devastating. Knowing how beneficial they are, this represents the triumph of an organized campaign to politicize medicine. Its failure is a failure of discourse and communications, not science.
@reneestephen Absolutely there huge failures in communication in several aspects of the pandemic response - and they were compounded by active misinformation campaigns. It almost seems like we need a new field, Public Health Counterintelligence
