There is a global movement now on COVID19 vaccine access. It's all the same cast of characters, activists, scientists, clinicians together again worldwide.
It's plausible "but variants" works on policymakers without having the intended effect on broader public (who agreeably may not matter). I also won't be surprised if some portion vaccinated people quickly book, say, vacations elsewhere without feeling that much at risk.

I do think foreign policy/aid issues have a different political opportunity structure than domestic, where pub opinion drives less. overton window open now, but I think you're entirely right that it will easily close. Which is why action now on vaccine equity matters

I think right to caution we could get unjust/stigmatizing responses like travel bans--but I think we'll get them either way as evidenced across two admins--and best case is that open-source the vaccine knowledge enough to get folks access now.
