Trapped between vaccine nationalism and neo-liberalism By Opinion Ashraf Patel and Dr Alex Mashilo The global Covid-19 pandemic crisis is the gravest global disaster of modern times. Sadly, it rapidly descended into the most rabid nationalistic form – Covid 19 vaccine nationalism and selfishness. In his speech to the World Economic Forum 2021 Virtual conference on June 27, President Cyril Ramaphosa made a heartfelt appeal to wealthy nations not to hoard Covid-19 vaccines, but free them for the developing South. For a leader of the AU and South Africa as a member of the G20 and BRICS to plead in this manner shows the stark unequal power relations of the rich developed world vis-à-vis the precarious position of the developing South.
