“Remaining Committed to a Global Health Community and Promoting Global Cooperation on the Covid Response” is an excerpt from the speech delivered at the Global Health Summit via video link on May 21, 2021. According to the article, to clinch an early victory against Covid-19 and restore economic growth remains the top priority for the international community. G20 members need to shoulder responsibilities in global cooperation against the virus. In the meantime, we need to draw on experience both positive and otherwise, and lose no time in remedying deficiencies, closing loopholes, and strengthening weak links in a bid to enhance preparedness and capacity for coping with major public health emergencies. We must put people and human life first, follow science-based policies and ensure a coordinated and systemic response, stick together and promote solidarity and cooperation, uphold fairness and equity as we strive to close the immunization gap, and address both the symptoms and root causes as we improve the governance system, firmly advance international cooperation against Covid-19 and work together for a healthier and brighter future for humanity. In this unprecedented battle against the pandemic, China has, while receiving support and help from many countries, mounted a massive global humanitarian operation. China will support global anti-pandemic cooperation.
