This week in Cornwall, the United States and G7+ Leaders announced more than one billion safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines to accelerate global coverage.

This announcement means that since 2020, the G7+ has committed to financing and providing approximately 2.3 billion vaccines for the world, the White House said in a statement.

The United States is providing nearly half of that support and is the single largest COVID-19 vaccine donor in the world.

This 2.3 billion total includes support for expanding local production capacity around the world to add more than a billion doses to the global vaccine supply by the end of 2022.
