Topic: Vaccine Access and Distribution
Vaccinations are one of the best ways to prevent the spread of illness and save lives, but getting adequate access and education can create difficulties. About 4 million deaths per year could have been prevented by vaccination. This is why Poland completely supports programs to increase production, distribution, and education about vacancies.
Poland has implemented programs to increase the amount of vaccinations of people of all ages, and promotes access to vaccination for everyone. In June of 2021 Poland committed to donating €750,000 to COVAX in order to support vaccination distribution. Poland is dedicated to increasing the number of vaccination individuals, and promoting the World Health Organization’s goals of increased vaccination. The only way that these goals can be achieved is through global cooperation, and an approach that addresses the problems at every step of vaccine distribution. Starting with promoting increasing vaccination production, fair and widespread distribution and accessibility, and increased education and awareness of the benefits of vaccination. Poland recognizes vaccinations as a foundation for world health, and the importance of unity in working towards sustainable goals to prevent the millions of avoidable deaths caused by lack of access to vaccinations.
