Last week, UNICEF signed an agreement with Human Vaccine, a subsidiary of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, for supply of up to 220 million doses of the Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine. Procurement of the doses will be contingent on the vaccine receiving emergency use listing from the World Health Organization (WHO) and an advance purchase agreement with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, for the COVAX vaccine-sharing facility. The organizations leading COVAX also made an announcement last week renewing the call for funding and vaccine sharing, urging countries to share at least 1 billion doses in 2021.
