contents COVID-19 from the lens of Global International Relations María Magdalena Bas-Vilizzio Mónica Fernanda Nieves-Aguirre Relaciones Internacionales 19 COVID human security global governance International Law Although the initiation of COVID-19 vaccination brought hope, IFM forecasts that the main fault line to global recovery is access to vaccines, an argument that reinforces the idea that COVID-19 is a syndemic and not a pandemic. This article argues that from the lens of Global International Relations three elements impact vaccine access and affordability: human security, global governance, and International Law. First, the health emergency requires rethinking security considering the multiple risks and threats centred on the human being. Second, inefficiency of global governance led to the success of vaccine diplomacy over Co-vax Facility, as well as India and South Africa's long and uncertain struggle for a waiver in the World Trade Organisation. Finally, although Law plays an essential role in building resilience in situations of vulnerability, the international legal system lacks treaties that rule pandemics or establish limits to intellectual property if the immunity of herd requires it. 2022 artículo científico 1657-7558 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=53173395003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/531/53173395003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/531/53173395003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/531/53173395003/53173395003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/531/53173395003/movil 10.18601/16577558.n36.03 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=531 OASIS application/pdf Universidad Externado de Colombia OASIS (Colombia) Num.36
