World Health Organization Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Wednesday that the first United Nations solidarity flight took off transporting personal protective equipment, ventilators, and lab supplies to many countries across Africa.
He said that the solidarity flight is part of a massive effort to ship life-saving medical supplies to 95 countries across the globe, in conjunction with the World Food Program and other agencies.
He added that the solidarity response fund has generated almost $150 million dollars from 240,000 individuals and organizations.
