To successfully combat the COVID-19 pandemic and save lives, the international community needs to use all the tools at its disposal. In addition to rolling out vaccinations we also need to ensure equitable access to testing and therapeutic options to minimize infections, hospitalization, cases of severe illness and long COVID. This is particularly important to protect the most at-risk and vulnerable groups.
Germany believes that testing and treatment strategies have to go hand in hand.
