本文探讨了非洲疫苗生产加速器如何支持非洲疫苗的可持续生产。它强调了加速器与区域疫苗制造协作相关的价值。作者建议,这种新颖的融资工具应根据非洲疫苗制造伙伴关系的目标进行精心设计和实施。不应成为安抚全球疫苗市场制度环境的脱钩工具,但政治和技术领导人的善意和承诺,以确保在非洲公平获得常规和与流行病有关的疫苗。
This article explores how the African Vaccine Manufacturing Accelerator can support the sustainable production of vaccines in Africa. It highlights the value of the accelerator in relation to the Regional Vaccine Manufacturing Collaborative. The author proposes that this novel financing instrument should be well-designed and implemented in line with the targets of the Partnerships for African Vaccine Manufacturing. It should not be a decoupling tool to appease the institutional environment of the global vaccine market, but a sustainable demonstration of the goodwill and commitment of political and technical leaders to ensure equitable access to routine and epidemic-related vaccines in Africa.
