It was like this: US funded billions of dollers to companies like Pfizer, Aztraseneca etc to develop a vaccine with a agreement to get certain number of doses if they succeed in finding a vaccine. But as u cn see it's a risky investment bcz some vaccines won't even go to phase 3 trials. But they did it anyway as they are rich. Similarly UK did invested, so did Canada etc. But poor countries like us could not take such a risk investment so they had to wait till phase 3 trials to order vaccines from these companies but they were far down the line as rich countries already had secured millions of doses. Understanding this WHO came in as mediator and hence came COVAX program but it was kind of a failure now as rich countries already had prior agreements between companies.</p></blockquote><p></p>
