Coronavirus outbreak: Looming war over a possible COVID-19 vaccine
If a vaccine is discovered for COVID-19, the reality is not everyone will get it at the same time. It could take months or years to produce enough doses for every person on the planet, that's over 7 billion. There will be many dilemmas in the process including, who should get it first?
Dawna Friesen also talks with epidemiologist Dr. Seth Berkley, CEO of Gavi, an international vaccine alliance that works to bring public and private sectors together to create equal access to vaccines.
Berkley discusses how manufacturing a COVID-19 vaccine can't come at the expense of producing other routine vaccines and the importance that access to a vaccine is done with a global perspective.
