The World Health Organization
(WHO)
does not expect the vaccinations to be sufficient to stop the virus from spreading in the foreseeable future.
It will be difficult for the world to eradicate the virus, said Mike Ryan, head of the WHO emergency program.
Right now there isn't even enough vaccine to vaccinate the most vulnerable people, he said.

In the hardest hit country in the world, the
USA
, the number of daily deaths and new infections with the coronavirus has recently declined slightly.
The top state infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci suspects a natural fluctuation behind the decline.

The number of daily deaths related to the pandemic had recently
leveled off
at an average of
3,100
per day.
Less than two weeks ago this value was 3350.
