The emergence of the Omicron coronavirus variant poses unanswered questions in the ongoing fight against COVID-19. But it confirms what CARE has emphasized since the beginning of the pandemic: no one is safe until everyone is safe. New variants and surges of infection are inevitable without equal access to COVID-19 vaccines worldwide.
Today CARE is urgently seeking $25 million to prepare for and protect against Omicron and other COVID-19 variants in teh world's most vulnerable communities.
Fast and Fairworks to ensure COVID-19 vaccines reach the most marginalized, and that women are not pushed to the back of the line. We build on CARE’s experience – such as addressing the Ebola epidemic – to foster community preparedness for, trust in, and access to vaccines. We support national governments to strengthen last-mile delivery, while bolstering public health systems, capacity to deliver primary care – including routine childhood immunizations and reproductive health care – and resilience against future shocks.
