The COVAX initiative was deployed to provide an effective mechanism for purchasing Covid-19 vaccines, as well as to provide doses to countries with lower economic capacity. However, in practice this has not worked and COVAX has not been able to procure the doses needed to achieve its dose distribution goals. In this way, it is of importance to analyze what factors were involved in this failure of cooperation. Consequently, the actual investigation is a case study that aims to answer the question: What factors were involved in the failure of COVAX during its first phase in the period 2020-2021? It is proposed to use the perspective offered by realism given that emphasis is placed on States that invoke the principle of sovereignty and opt for national interest over collaboration as a means to fase the consequences of the infection. Through a qualitative case study methodology, it is possible to propose three factors. First, the signing of unilateral agreements by developed countries. Secondly, the political management of vaccines through ''vaccine diplomacy'' by emerging powers. Finally, the existence of technical difficulties in distribution. Then, through the compilation of primary and secondary data and information, it will be possible to understand the incidence of those mentioned factors in causing the initial failure of COVAX.
