Covid: WHO, ‘only 0.4% doses in poor countries 6 months after the start of vaccinations’

Milan, June 7 (beraking latest news Health) – “Six months after the anti-Covid vaccinations started, high-income countries have administered almost 44% of the doses. Low-income countries only 0.4%. The most frustrating thing about this statistic is that nothing has changed in recent months “. This was reported by the director general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, during the usual press point on the situation of Sars-CoV-2.

“The unequal distribution of vaccines – the WHO DG warned – has allowed the virus to continue to spread, increasing the possibility that a variant will emerge that makes vaccines less effective”. Inequality in vaccinations, he added, “is a threat to all nations, not just those with the fewest vaccines.”
