to boost or not to boost?

[Kristof Decoster]

Dear all,

 

As there’s a bit of  ‘booster debate’ in the North (see for example https://www.science.org/content/article/should-i-get-covid-19-booster   &   https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-02840-x   )  I was wondering how things are being approached now in countries in Africa.   

 

Even if I’m well aware the world has moved on (including the challenges we see on a daily basis on our tv screen & social media), and even more so in SSA.

 

Is there a focus on vulnerable groups (if at all), current availability of vaccines, financing … ?

 

Best,

 

Kristof
