The Duke and Duchess of Sussex gave a joint speech from the Great Lawn in Central Park.
Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan believe that inequitable vaccine distribution is a human rights crisis.
For the televised event, Duchess Meghan wore an elegant white shift dress by Valentino, embellished with floral designs at the collars, sleeves, and hem, with black heels and minimal jewelry. Prince Harry opted for a white button-up shirt with the collar worn open under a tailored black suit."Every single person on this planet has a fundamental right to get this vaccine. That's the point. But that's not happening.
Duchess Meghan continued,"And finally in our conversations, these experts shared that how the vaccine is distributed, and who it's distributed to, should be left to independent international organizations who know exactly where the doses are most needed. Just think about the millions of vaccines that have been discarded this year. That's like throwing away life vests, when those around you are drowning.
