Several proposals have emerged on how to distribute the Covid-19 vaccine, but they fall short in ensuring that the vaccine is distributed fairly. A team of researchers suggests three ways to more fairly and effectively distribute the vaccine so that people in poor countries get the vaccine as soon as possible.

The results of the study by a team of researchers from Binghamton University. was led by professor Nicole Hassoun. The paper, "Just Allocation of Covid-19 Vaccines," was published in BMJ Global Health. Ethical vaccine allocation requires closing the gap and ensuring that everyone can access a vaccine as soon as possible.
