Biden’s Global Covid Summit Has Been Postponed
President Joe Biden’s second global Covid-19 summit has been postponed, according to three individuals familiar with the matter.
The summit, which Germany is co-hosting, was set to take place in March. Then it was pushed to April after the Russian invasion of Ukraine and because the administration was still working with Congress to secure additional funding to help facilitate Covid-19 vaccinations for millions of people in low- and middle-income countries, the people said. Congress recently eliminated $5 billion in global Covid-19 funding from a broader coronavirus package.
