Global commitments on #COVID19 offer way forward but success depends on action being taken now, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus's statement on the #COVIDSummit commitments 👉 bit.ly/3i3UR9c
Fact: about 90% of refugees are hosted in developing countries.
Fact: 80% of all vaccines have been administered in high- and upper-middle countries.
If we're going to end this pandemic, we need to change the approach. #DonateDosesNow #COVIDSummit
My message to the Global #COVIDSummit :
In this pandemic, it’s vaccination not just vaccines that save lives.
Local actors are making it happen.
We must build forward towards a future where recovery includes communities ready & able to respond to future disease outbreaks.
In 2021, the Biden administration proposed holding a #COVIDSummit in early 2022 to assess progress in the fight against #COVID19 . But it’s February and there's still no date. So, we’ve decided to help President Biden organize it & we want YOU to help. Here's how.👇 go.one.org/3rzhV4G
The path out of this pandemic is clear, but we can only get out together.
The most urgent step right now is for well-supplied countries to donate COVID-19 vaccines to low- and middle-income countries. #DonateDosesNow #UNGA #COVIDSummit
UNICEF welcomes the pledges made today by world leaders at today’s #COVIDSummit .
The next step is for governments to urgently carry them out as soon as possible.
Millions of lives depend on it. #DonateDosesNow #UNGA
As we progress towards a more equitable distribution of #CovidVaccines , we must ensure:
1⃣That people in difficult to access places are also vaccinated
2⃣That struggling health systems are supported
3⃣That communities have the right info to make informed choices
#COVIDSummit
The world remains in alarming #VaccineInequity . To meet the goal of vaccinating 70% of 🌐 by 2022 & end the #COVID19 pandemic, will require all partners to intensify their support to lower-income countries. My message for the Global #COVIDSummit : ow.ly/pboH50GeGHP #UNGA
Of course COVID-19 is a global health crisis.
But for millions of displaced people it has also struck their livelihoods, the education of their children, and their inclusion in society.
Equitable vaccine distribution is the path to ending these challenges. #COVIDSummit
We must deliver COVID-19 vaccines to the world’s most vulnerable.
UNICEF joins the urgent global call for governments and businesses to save lives. #DonateDosesNow #COVIDSummit

We were honored to join President Biden #COVIDsummit , which set new #COVID19 targets to #InvestInOxygen . Working together, we can ensure #Oxygen is available in all health facilities by the end of 2022, as CHAI co-CEO Joy Phumaphi explains. #UNGA Every Breath Counts #ACTogether Unitaid
.President Biden at #COVIDSummit : “We’re not going to solve this crisis with half measures or middle of the road ambitions. We need to go big, and we need to do our part.”
I spoke at today’s #COVIDSummit about how we must act, as the pandemic still rages, to save lives NOW. While we race to vaccinate the world, ramping up global access to oxygen and ensuring its equitable distribution may be the most important single step we can take.
