Coronavirus: Vaccine nationalism puts world on brink of ‘catastrophic moral failure,’ says WHO chief
Description
January 18, 2021
World Health Organization director-general Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Monday that the world is on the brink of “catastrophic moral failure” in sharing COVID-19 vaccines. He said the prospects for equitable distribution were at “serious risk” just as its COVAX vaccine-sharing scheme aimed to start distributing inoculations next month.
