As the pandemic wore on, though, its effects on global inequality shifted. Richer countries enjoyed better access to vaccines than poorer ones, and were more able to sustain spending on programmes to support incomes and bolster recoveries. The net effect of the pandemic has been to raise inequality between countries, back to the levels of the early 2010s on some measures. Covid-19 was never going to be good for the poor. Do you think that the global inequality will continue to rise as long as Covid-19 pandemic still exists ?
