Yes, Open Society Foundations has made several contributions to combat the devastation in the wake of coronavirus—focusing on communities too often left out and left-back by government policy.
Recently, the foundation has committed $70 million in support of emergency relief for vulnerable communities, and the funding will support work by foundation partners in Africa, Asia, Eurasia, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the Middle East and North Africa.
Their work seeks to advance an inclusive vision of health as a public good—an issue of paramount importance in the search to deliver therapies and a vaccine for COVID-19. That vision calls for health care to be available to all.
