This should not be the default position. There is likely only a modest marginal benefit for rich countries from vaccinating young people, while developing nations would benefit enormously from these doseshttps://twitter.com/davidalim/status/1369753569277190147 …

People are missing the point. I'm not saying that the US should not vaccinate people, but the benefit to the US (and other rich countries) of vaccinating everyone before sharing *at all* is tiny compared to the benefit that those doses could have

Does this mean that some people in the US would be vaccinated a bit later? Yes. But it would almost certainly save many lives in less well-developed countries

Yeah, but Biden is the president of the USA, not the world. He has to take care of his citizens. Plus, it's not only about health

We could vaccinate 100% of our population & all it takes is one variant to develop that isn’t covered by the vaccines. When it comes to any pandemic we are just as vulnerable as our most vulnerable countries & regions.

And that’s not even mentioning the fact that we could be saving millions of lives as well, but unfortunately for many folks their empathy only extends to the borders of this country & thats if it even goes that far at all..
