[Global Justice Now @GlobalJusticeUK]

More than 300 scientists have called on the government to clear away rules like patents and let low and middle-income countries manufacture Covid-19 vaccines.

Leaving billions without vaccines is reckless and could lead to new dangerous coronavirus variants.

Moins de 2 % des 690 000 000 doses de vaccins contre la #COVID19 administrées dans le monde l’ont été en #Afrique.
Des stocks limités et des difficultés d’approvisionnement mettent ces vaccins hors de portée de nombreuses personnes sur le continent.

1/ Remember when England had restrictions like the ‘rule-of-six’, 10pm curfew, Tiers. Our paper now published in @bmcmedicine looked at how these restrictions impact the number contacts people have. Quite relevant for when we move out of lockdown.
