I am deeply concerned that many low-income countries have not yet received a single #COVID19 vaccine dose, while wealthier countries are on track to vaccinating their entire population.
Vaccines must be a global public good. The world must unite to make this a reality.
We must not abuse data – our new 21st century resource – like we have abused our natural resources.
Our digital resources must be used wisely to protect the “environment” of our fundamental values – democracy & individual freedoms.

Fattige land som ikkje greier å utnytte digitale moglegheiter heng meir og meir etter. @Regjeringen vil syte for at utviklingslanda får tilgang til innovasjon & ny teknologi for å gjere dei betre rusta til å nå berekraftmåla: https://t.co/wuDrATMwp0
