The unequal distribution of vaccines which protect against COVID-19 is the weak point in efforts to combat the disease in the Americas, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) said on Wednesday.

"Vaccine inequity remains the Achilles' heel of our response," PAHO Director Dr. Carissa Etienne said during the organization's weekly virtual briefing.
"A handful of companies produce all the world's supply of COVID-19 vaccines," Etienne said. "Many of them are letting price and country of origin, not need, determine how doses are rolled out, so much of today's vaccine supply remains in the hands of wealthy nations around the world."
Countries are also suffering because of production delays, leaving them waiting for doses purchased months ago, she said.
Almost 12 million vaccine donations from the United States, Spain, Norway, France and Sweden will not be enough to protect the hundreds of millions of people who remain vulnerable, Etienne said, adding just over 23 per cent of people in Latin America and the Caribbean are fully vaccinated.
PAHO will launch an effort to bring mRNA vaccine technology to the region and boost manufacturing efforts, she said.
