A spokesman for the US mission in Geneva stated this while speaking to Reuters, adding, “There will be no US official participation”. In an email reply to a query, the spokesman said, “We look forward to learning more about this initiative in support of international cooperation to develop a vaccine for COVID-19 as soon as possible.”
