Prioritising the Poor: LDCs and Trade in COVID-19-Related Medical Supplies
Synopsis
The world's poorest countries face a trilemma when tackling COVID-19, including being at the back of the queue for vital medical supplies. This new issue of Trade Hot Topics analyses the trade flows in COVID-19-related medical goods, identifying the main suppliers to Commonwealth LDCs and their potential exposure to recent trade measures affecting such exports. It provides policy recommendations to ensure equitable distribution of these essential medical supplies.
