The document, to be presented tomorrow by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez at a meeting of EU leaders in Porto, calls for the removal of trade barriers and barriers to supplies to reduce vaccine shortages.

Unequal access to vaccines between developed and developing countries not only creates a “sense of injustice” but also “poses a health risk to the world”, the text added.
