Great post - the data point about DRC returning vaccines is very frustrating. I think the story of COVID vaccines in Africa (from the 2025 view) further shows how important infrastructure development will be for GDP growth / health improvements in SSA over the next 25+ years.
No Thanks for your comments! The DRC case is extremely sad and highlights long lasting impacts of colonial legacies, corruption and above all the failure of our leaders to lead.

With Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca etc is there a limit to how many developed nations are allowed?
It’s very frustrating that Africa is not allowed to create its own but rather depend on this COVAX grant to get the vaccine
