The charities aim is to make sure the vaccine is accessible and available for more deprived areas of the world so they can work towards ending the pandemic for everyone, everywhere.

Harry and Meghan's role is to fundraise and encourage the private sector to make donations to COVAX, so that more people will be provided access to vaccines.

“Over the past year, our world has experienced pain, loss, and struggle — together. Now we need to recover and heal — together,” said Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

“We can’t leave anybody behind. We will all benefit, we will all be safer, when everyone, everywhere has equal access to the vaccine. We must pursue equitable vaccine distribution, and in that, restore faith in our common humanity. This mission couldn’t be more critical or important.”

Derangers will be first to tune in. Obviously the world is way greater with more important pursuits than any monarchy.

I mean...look at that lineup. Biden and Kamala will feature, as well as Presidents Trudeau and Macron.

I can already see meltdowns happening from a certain section if Harry and Meghan introduce President Biden on the program.

Seems they have been pretty involved with organizing this. Pretty impressive and more great work for Archewell to get behind. They definitely staying busy.

Held at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium on May 2, Global Citizen’s “Vax Live” will be “the first large-scale music event for a COVID-compliant audience composed of fully vaccinated front-line healthcare and essential workers.”

Biden and Kamala are not special?



"US President Joe Biden, First Lady Dr. Jill Biden, and Vice President Kamala Harris will make a special appearance as part of VAX LIVE through Global Citizen’s partnership with the White House’s “We Can Do This” initiative."

Meghan is pregnant and unvaccinated so I doubt she'll be going. I hope they make a video appearance.

We don’t know if she’s been vaccinated or not. The CDC says pregnant women can get the vaccine. Whether she has or hasn’t been vaccinated, she may choose not to attend in person being so far along in her pregnancy.

How do we know she’s unvaccinated? The CDC actually reversed its initial position that pregnant women shouldn’t be excluded from the vaccination to pregnant women should get vaccinated. Babies have been born with covid-19 antibodies from vaccinated moms...

I didn't know the CDC changed their position. I still don't think they will attend though.

Edit: But even if there were no special people on this event, this is good for them. It aligns with the purpose of what they hope to achieve with Archewell.

This is awesome! And so important. The more people who get vaccinated the better. It’s good for people so they don’t have to die or suffer COVID complications but also good for the world, so that hopefully we can get these variants under control

Covax is the single most important initiative right now - apart from the perennial classics ending hunger, world peace and access to clean water.

So awesome of them to play an active role in this!

Pushing the vax

It's very easy to be anti-vax when you live in a first world country, where you have access to great medical care and have the option to turn down the vaccine.

A lot of poor countries don't even have the option to turn it down because their governments can't afford to buy the vaccine in the first place. This is what the charity is trying to remedy.

I know my home country is part of the COVAX initiative but they don't have enough vaccines to offer everybody yet. Nearly every week my mother has been getting phone calls from Somalia about someone she knew dying from covid, which is another reason why I support this fundraiser. Don't bother commenting back if your one of those who thinks covid is a hoax.

Will Biden know where he is? Will he confuse Gayle for Kamala? Groan away, yes it all aligns.

I'm happy for them! This sounds like a great opportunity and a game changer for the countries and people who are in need.

This looks like a great line up from Biden, Kamala to Meghan and Harry, we love to see it! :heart_eyes:

This fantastic! I love that they're still pushing through with their work and ignoring the noise and stupidity from the derangers and the rota rats.

This is important work they're lending their voice and influence to, I hope it's a roaring success.

They’ve been doing such excellent work, way more than they would have been able to do within the BRF.

Much much more, considering how much Johnson and his Tory government have bungled covid in the UK.


William doing his little maskless pub visit a mere week or so before the UK had to shut down again was a Tory initiative! Let's not forget about the horrible Covid Express tour to shore up support for the government.

Now that the Sussexes have departed, it not only exposed the relationship between the royals and the press, but also the royals and the government. Regardless of what I think of the BRF now, it's even more horrific that their connections to these terrible institutions mean they actually cannot be the leaders their subjects need them to be. There's no reason why we couldn't have also seen Charles and Camilla or even Kate and William partnering with this, since the UK has been slammed with new variants.
