Vaccine diplomacy

Arrival of Salk Polio Vaccine from the United States at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol in 1957.

Vaccine diplomacy,[1] a form of medical diplomacy, is the use of vaccines to improve a country's diplomatic relationship and influence of other countries.[2][3] Meanwhile, vaccine diplomacy also "means a set of diplomatic measures taken to ensure access to the best practices in the development of potential vaccines, to enhance bilateral and/or multilateral cooperation between countries in conducting joint R&D, and, in the case of the announcement of production, to ensure the signing of a contract for the purchase of the vaccine at the shortest term."[4] Although primary discussed in the context of the supply of COVID-19 vaccines, it also played a part in the distribution of the smallpox vaccine.[5][6][7]
