A video report from France 24’s “Beyond Business” examines the vaccine industry, “a $34 billion industry that’s saving millions of lives,” and asks, “[I]s the money spent on vaccines going as far as it should?” According to the summary, “The market is now dominated by the public-private partnership, the Global Alliance for Vaccination and Immunization — GAVI,” but “critics say GAVI is too close to the supplier and that its purchasing decisions are being influenced by some donor countries” (Ben Aïssa/Laïdi/Winspear, 7/8).
