  • Description:
    The Initiative for Global Vaccine Access (Global VAX) is a whole-of-U.S. government effort to turn vaccines in vials into vaccinations in arms for eligible populations around the world. Through Global VAX, the U.S. government will contribute to the global goal to meet vaccination targets in all countries.

    CDC is committed to accelerating progress toward widespread and equitable access to safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines. CDC supports more than 70 countries globally to receive and administer COVID-19 vaccines. CDC’s global vaccine efforts through Global VAX strengthen countries’ capacity to plan for and deliver COVID-19 vaccines while building long-term, sustainable capacity for immunization programs and response to infectious disease threats. Around the world, CDC is supporting countries in building COVID-19 vaccine demand, as well as the planning, implementation, and evaluation of vaccine programs.

    The United States is donating more than 1.2 billion COVID-19 vaccines to countries most in need. As access to the COVID-19 vaccine supply increases globally, CDC’s global vaccine efforts through Global VAX have shifted from vaccine preparedness to implementation, with a focus on planning, improving vaccine confidence and demand, supporting vaccine safety monitoring, and evaluating vaccines and vaccination programs.
