  • Large global population & diversity of developing countries, supply of essential vaccines by the mechanism of the international initiatives could not be totally guaranteed the security
  • However, individual countries, small to medium size, could be difficult to be self-sufficiency/self-reliance on vaccine supply
  • With international support & PPPs through technological transfer and advice, the cooperation on essential vaccine development & supply among the countries in the specific regions (regional-reliance) could be possible & sustainable means
  • Countries in the specific regions with well established, such as the AEC, should not reluctant to start the collaboration
