U.S. Support for COVAX

The U.S. welcomes the good news that COVAX completed its first delivery of COVID-19 vaccines to Guyana.  Global crises require global responses, and the United States is proud to have contributed $4 billion to COVAX, the largest commitment globally from a single country. This contribution builds on decades of U.S. investments in global health and global health organizations and demonstrates the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to build back better by strengthening multilateral cooperation on global health. We encourage other countries to make and fulfill concrete commitments to COVAX and to support vaccine manufacturing, supply, and distribution to help end this this pandemic.
