"The #COVID19 pandemic has brought us a tsunami of suffering. Over 3.4M lives have been lost. Some 500M jobs have gone. Trillions of $ have been wiped from global balance sheets. The most vulnerable are suffering most. And I fear this is far from over."

"Sadly, unless we act now, we face the situation in which rich countries vaccinate the majority of their people and open their economies while [#COVID19] continues to cause deep suffering by circulating & mutating in the poorest countries."

"The 🌍 must respond resolutely & in solidarity to stop [#COVID19]. World leaders must urgently step up with a global plan for equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, tests & treatments. This starts with financing the @ACTAccelerator & its #COVAX Facility."

"We are at war with [#COVID19]. We need the logic and urgency of a war economy to boost the capacity of our weapons: the vaccines."
