WHO: 3rd of World's Population Has Not Been Vaccinated

Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), said that the organization's experts monitored a decrease in reported deaths, which last week was the lowest in more than two years, but the epidemic is not over yet.

He continued: Corona is now affecting countries in very different ways, saying that equitable access to vaccination for the most vulnerable groups remains our single most powerful tool to save lives, and striving to vaccinate 70% of the population in every country remains essential to control the epidemic. Priority will be given to health workers, the elderly and other at-risk groups.

Ghebreyesus warned that some high-income countries are now providing fourth doses to their populations, despite a third of the world's population has not yet received a single dose, including 83% of the population in Africa.
