"Where you're born should not affect your ability to survive": Prince Harry urges COVID vaccine equity

Prince Harry made an impassioned plea on Wednesday night for global leaders to "keep doing our part" and deliver COVID vaccine science and support to developing countries. He delivered his remarks at the British GQ Men of the Year Awards, saying, "we cannot move forward together unless we address this imbalance." 

Prince Harry made the remarks while introducing GQ's Heroes of the Year — the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine team. "Until every community can access the vaccine, and until every community is connected to trustworthy information about the vaccine, then we are all at risk," the Duke of Sussex said. "... There is a huge disparity between who can and cannot access the vaccine. Less than 2% of people in the developing world have received a single dose at this point, and many of their healthcare workers are still not even vaccinated."
