The Covid-19 pandemic is far from over / Article

The opening ceremony of the forum was also attended by the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), who emphasized that the current pandemic could only be ended with close cooperation between countries.

“The pandemic will end when the world decides that it must end. It is in our hands. We have the necessary tools and effective medicine. But we have not used these tools effectively. “The pandemic is far from over with 50,000 Covid-19 victims a week,” said WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Gebreesus.

Previously WHO warnedthat the Covid-19 pandemic could continue for much of 2022 because poor countries in the world do not receive enough Covid-19 vaccines.

The opening ceremony was also attended by the French and German Health Ministers, as well as the President of the European Commission, Urzula von der Leiena. Political leaders stressed that they had helped supply the Covid-19 vaccine to the world’s poorest countries.

At the same time, representatives of international organizations acknowledged that not enough is being done at the moment to cripple the entire population of the world. And this is one of the reasons why it is not possible to overcome the coronavirus pandemic.

At present, three-quarters of the vaccine is in the hands of richer countries and the third dose of the vaccine is being distributed. Meanwhile, for example, in many African countries, as many as five percent of the population have not received pots.
