mRNA tech transfer hub programme and country engagement
The mRNA technology transfer hub and spoke model aimed at empowering low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through sharing knowledge, building capacity, and creating a network of collaboration is well on track to deliver in the Covid-19 space. It is now indisputable that to face future pandemics and ensure vaccine equity, LMICs need to be part of the solution. Sustainability is key, other vaccines e.g. HIV or TB, will be essential along with strong global and country support.
