Global COVID-19 vaccine inequity: The scope, the impact, and the challenges
Open accessAbstract
Global vaccine inequity is prolonging the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we outline the scope and impact of inequitable vaccine distribution and identify challenges in vaccine development, manufacturing, and distribution as well as potential solutions to address this crisis.

“These findings emphasise that mortality outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic were not solely determined by SDI and that vaccination efforts, public policies, and individual behaviour changes likely influenced the severity of the pandemic across countries and territories at all levels of SDI.33, 34, 35, 36, 37”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
