O BSH seeks to end inequality in vaccine supply

“are probably 20 people in the world who are crucial to solving this problem of equality”, WHO senior official Bruce Aylward said on Tuesday 8 August.

According to him, these people lead large companies responsible for supply, then lead with countries contracting most of the world's vaccines and countries producing them.

We need those 20 people to say: we will solve this problem by the end of September. We will make sure that 10 percent of every country is vaccinated”, he said, broadcast AFP.

Aylward, said the world should be “neverity” from an inequality situation to supply vaccines between poor and rich countries.

The UN Health Agency has become increasingly angry with wealthy countries that, according to the agency, are not doing enough to have a better supply of vaccines in poor countries.

Nearly 4.5 billion doses of vaccines have been administered worldwide, according to an AFP estimate.

In high-income countries classified by the World Bank, 104 doses have been injected for 100 people, reports REL.

In 29 lower - income nations, only two doses have been administered to 100 people.

O The BSH wants every country to have vaccinated at least 10 percent of its population by the end of September; at least 40 percent by the end of this year; and 70 percent by mid-2022.
