Abstract

CPIGH director Gavin Yamey, professor of the practice of policy and global health, and David McAdams, a professor in Duke's Fuqua School of Business, are working with the World Health Organization and Gavi, the global vaccine alliance, to map out strategies for deploying an effective COVID-19 vaccine worldwide. Fundamental to their work is defining strategies that prevent high-income countries from monopolizing effective vaccines and instead ensuring that all countries have equal access.
