A total of 156 states –representing roughly 64% of the planet’s inhabitants –have dedicated to pooling funds to help grow, purchase, and equitably distribute two billion doses of a COVID-19 vaccine from the end of 2021.
“This is not only the ideal thing to do, but it is the wise thing to do,” explained Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of this World Health Organization, that will be co-leading the attempt together with the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance.
Thus far, 64 high-income nations have signed into this attempt, and 92 non – and – countries, that are qualified for aid in procuring chemical doses. Gavi CEO Seth Berkley stated in a WHO press conference on Monday he anticipates 38 more states to join in the forthcoming days.
