In response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and
the societal disruption it has brought, national governments and
the international community have invested billions of dollars and
immense amounts of human resources to develop a safe and effective
vaccine in an unprecedented time frame. Vaccination against this
novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
(SARS-CoV-2), offers the possibility of significantly reducing
severe morbidity and mortality and transmission when deployed
alongside other public health strategies and improved therapies.
Health equity is intertwined with the impact of COVID-19 and there
are certain populations that are at increased risk of severe
illness or death from COVID-19. In the United States and worldwide,
the pandemic is having a disproportionate impact on people who are
already disadvantaged by virtue of their race and ethnicity, age,
health status, residence, occupation, socioeconomic condition, or
other contributing factors. Framework for Equitable Allocation of
COVID-19 Vaccine offers an overarching framework for vaccine
allocation to assist policy makers in the domestic and global
health communities. Built on widely accepted foundational
principles and recognizing the distinctive characteristics of
COVID-19, this report's recommendations address the commitments
needed to implement equitable allocation policies for COVID-19
vaccine. Table of Contents Front Matter Summary 1 Introduction 2
