The Coronavirus pandemic is indeed a global threat. The vaccines that effectively control its spread must be made available to all nations; moreover, it is just as crucial to wealthy countries that all people on the planet be immunized against SARS-CoV2 as that their own residents be so immunized.

Therefore, a worldwide program of vaccination, including all necessary follow-up doses, must be developed and funded ASAP. This is not an issue of equity; it is required for universal self-protection.
