By partnering with drug companies, Western leaders bought their way to the front of the line, while billions of people wait their turn. But virus variants originating in mostly unvaccinated countries could eventually undo richer countries’ progress, blunting the effect of vaccines. It didn’t have to be like this. Western governments have resisted the call from global health officials to use rarely employed aggressive powers that could have forced companies to publish vaccine recipes, share their knowledge and ramp up manufacturing, in turn leading to broader vaccine access. The U.S. government is expected to receive a patent this month on a molecular engineering technique that originated in a National Institutes of Health lab and is at the heart of at least five major Covid-19 vaccines. It could present an opportunity to pressure drug companies to expand access to vaccines to less affluent countries. Vaccine diplomacy: Russia and China have promised to fill the void, entering into partnerships with producers in places such as Kazakhstan and Indonesia. The global vaccine alliance Covax, which stands to receive $4 billion from the Biden administration, aims to vaccinate 20 percent of people in the world’s poorest countries this year. It faces a $2 billion shortfall.

At least on the surface, their moods could not be more different: Israel’s fourth election in two years feels to many voters like Groundhog Day, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fights to remain in office while standing trial for corruption.

Many Palestinians, meanwhile, are exhilarated by the opportunity to pick their own representation, with the voter registration rate exceeding 93 percent. For the first time in years, they can imagine the dormant Parliament buildings in Ramallah and Gaza City coming back to life — which could, in a best-case scenario for Palestinians, pave the way for a reunification of Gaza and parts of the West Bank under one governing body. But international rights campaigners warn that the Palestinian elections are no game changer for Palestinian rights. Palestinians in the occupied territories cannot vote in the election that will have the greatest effect on their lives — the Israeli one. Quotable: “Young Palestinians want change, they want a different life,” said Mkhaimar Abusada, a political science professor at Al Azhar University in Gaza. “The Israelis are sick and tired of going to elections four times in two years — but we haven’t had elections in 15 years.” Related: The [small Palestinian encampment of Humsa](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRiOrdUP4QhAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjEvMDMvMjAvd29ybGQvbWlkZGxlZWFzdC9wYWxlc3Rpbmlhbi1oYW1sZXQtZW1ib2RpZXMtZmlnaHQtZm9yLXRoZS13ZXN0LWJhbmtzLWZ1dHVyZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIxMDMyMiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0yODMxNCZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD01Mzg5MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYFJUMlhgPPD-G1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) has become an embodiment of the battle for the future of the occupied territories.

Ramsay de Give for The New York Times What did you know about Equus before you arrived in Santa Fe? Not much. They purposely don’t have a lot of photos on their website. The founders told me that they don’t want people coming in with a specific idea of what their experience will be like, because then if it works out differently, clients could be disappointed. So what elevated it to “I need to try this”? One thing you always wonder with interesting experiences is: Is anyone actually paying to do this? And often, the answer is no. But the client list was so impressive — Margaret Atwood, Microsoft, a lot of other names I recognized. So I was curious to go and get out of it, presumably, whatever they were getting out of it. I’d love for my life to be as good as Bette Midler’s — I think. What’s something fun or unexpected you learned? Candace Croney, a professor of animal behavior and well-being at Purdue University, told me to think of horses the way you think of a cat — they’re not like a dog, who wants to be with you and wants attention. A horse doesn’t really want to be the main thing — maybe it wants to be petted and stroked, maybe it doesn’t. I didn’t learn that before I went, but if I ever meet another horse, I’ll just think of it like a big cat. PLAY, WATCH, EAT, READ What to Cook Paola & Murray for The New York Times.
