Evaluating and Enhancing Global COVID-19 Vaccine Equity

  • Summary

  • Health equity is a topic featured frequently on this podcast. We have watched a renewed emphasis on healthcare disparities and health inequity with the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. As the vaccines were rolled out, we watched once again as inequity reared its ugly head. Vulnerable populations were often late to receive access to the vaccines and often had to overcome significant obstacles to be vaccinated.

    Although vaccine inequity still exists in the US, over half of our adult population has received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, there is still work to be done. 

    In this episode, I shift the focus to Global COVID-19 Vaccine equity. How does the US and other developed countries compare to our fellow humans in countries that have low to mid socio-economic status. What can (and should) we do to correct this global disparity.
