Washington [US], April 24 (ANI): Myron Brilliant, Executive Vice President and Head of International Affairs at the US Chamber of Commerce, on Friday (local time) issued the statement calling on the administration to distribute US vaccine supplies to international partners.
"As the Covid pandemic inflicts a heavy toll on countries around the globe, the US Chamber strongly encourages the administration to release the millions of AstraZeneca vaccine doses in storage - as well as other life-saving support - for shipment to India, Brazil, and other nations hard-hit by the pandemic," US Chamber of Commerce said in a statement.
"These vaccine doses will not be needed in the United States, where it's estimated that vaccine manufacturers will be able produce enough doses by early June to vaccinate every American," the statement read.
This move would affirm US leadership, including in initiatives such as COVAX, and as we work with partners around the globe because no one is safe from the pandemic until we are all safe from it," the statement added. (ANI)
