The U.S has released it’s plan which looks to end the pandemic not just for the United States, but globally (1). Taken directly from the PDF released on the 1st, July, 2021, “This response aims to shorten the lifespan of and ultimately end the COVID-19 pandemic globally; mitigate its wider harms to people and economies and support the global recovery; and build back better to strengthen international readiness for future biological threats.” (2). There are five main points to the plan.
Objective 1- Speed up manufacturing and supply for the vaccines, support country readiness to administer the vaccines, and monitor the effectiveness and the safety of all Covid-19 vaccines. (3)
Objective 2- Increase the scientific knowledge behind Covid-19, support public health interventions and clinical interventions, and lessen negative effects on other health sectors. (4)
Objective 3- Address humanitarian needs, provide economic relief through social safety nets, help children recover from any learning and education disruptions, and reduce gender-based violence. (5)
Objective 4- Boosting job creation and fixing unemployment, creating safe international travel, and address human rights challenges which were increased due to the pandemic. (6)
Objective 5- Improve responses to disease threats, Develop a sustainable global health security financing system, Strengthen and re-form the World Health Organization (WHO), Increase international relations on infectious diseases and pandemics. (7)
