WSPID Call to Action for Ensuring Fair Prices for All Vaccines for All Countries with Limited Resources
WSPID Call to Action, calls on governments and international organizations around the world to address vaccine prices as a matter of urgency to protect the lives of present and future generations through global, equitable access to affordable vaccines.
Vaccine price should not be a barrier to vaccine introduction and the sustainability of immunization programs. We are calling for the urgent need to ensure fair pricing for all vaccines to ensure they will be "global public goods."
