As always Bill Gates called it:

This will only be solved or contained once we vax the developing world, so that we curb and slow down the emergence of variants.

Problem is that nobody in the developed world wants to be found with their briefs down and no vaccine availibility so the West is stockpiling jabs for people who essentially don't want it.

The west has been stuck around 67-70% for months now, with no tangible progress.

Those jabs, are the "use it or lose it" kind, if a vaccine resistant variant emerges in the 3rd world, all those stockpiles won't do any good, at that point for nobody.
