In response to the statement, Selena wrote on Twitter, "@BorisJohnson, 5million doses by September is too little too late. You promised Britain would donate ALL its surplus vaccines (sic)."
Selena, who has more than 64 million followers on the micro-blogging platform, subsequently urged her fans to voice their feelings through the Global Citizen website, which works towards ending extreme poverty around the world.

She wrote on Twitter at the time, "Please join me and send a message to France's @EmmanuelMacron and other #G7 leaders asking them to pledge dollars or doses to help everyone around the world fight the COVID-19 pandemic. #VaxLive (sic)."
