Chinanews, August 11, report comprehensively, research shows that by the end of 2021, the United Kingdom will "hoard" 210 million doses of spare new crown vaccine, far exceeding the approximately 95 million doses it currently needs.

As the UK refuses to give up vaccine patents, the government is under increasing pressure to take more measures to help poor countries get vaccines.

Data map: On March 10th, local time, outside the vaccination center in Westminster Abbey, London, UK, staff were receiving people who came to vaccinate.

　　According to data from the life science analysis company Airfinity, the UK has ordered approximately 467 million doses of vaccines, of which 306 million doses will be delivered within 2021.

However, the UK currently only needs 95 million doses of vaccine to vaccinate all people over the age of 16, and it also has enough vaccine to vaccinate vulnerable groups in the fall.

　　According to reports, if eligible people receive all the doses provided this year, the UK will have 210 million doses of vaccine left.

Even if the vaccine adoption rate is 100%, this number will reach 186 million.

　　The rights organization "Global Justice Today" pointed out that the remaining vaccines can be used to vaccinate about 210 million people in the 10 countries with the lowest vaccination rates in the world.

According to data from the University of Oxford, only 0.1% of the population in Benin, which has the highest vaccination rate among the 10 countries, has been vaccinated.

　　Foreign media pointed out that only 60% to 70% of the world's population can be vaccinated to achieve "global immunity". While the United Kingdom and other rich countries hoard vaccines while refusing to give up vaccine patents, the realization of this vision is nowhere in sight.

　　The World Health Organization (WHO) last week called on rich countries to suspend the booster dose and vaccinate 10% of the world’s population before the end of September, but the UK still insists on giving the third dose from next month.

　　The World Trade Organization has previously discussed a proposal that hopes that countries temporarily abandon the intellectual property rights of the new crown vaccine so that low- and middle-income countries can produce vaccines on their own, but this proposal was rejected by the British government.

Chakrabarty, the former shadow attorney general of the Labor Party, said that Britain and other rich countries are responsible for saving lives in the southern hemisphere, but officials have "closed all channels in low- and middle-income countries."
