While countries in the Middle East and Europe have announced a series of policies to start the third vaccination of the new coronavirus vaccine, WHO = Secretary-General of the World Health Organization Tedros will proceed with vaccination in developing countries until the end of September. I called for no additional vaccinations.
As the infection of the highly infectious mutant virus "Delta strain" spreads worldwide, the third inoculation of people over the age of 60 began on August 1 in Israel in the Middle East, and the United Kingdom and Germany are also elderly. There are widespread movements in each country to promote additional vaccinations, such as showing a policy to start in September.
Regarding this, WHO Secretary-General Tedros said at a press conference on the 4th, "I understand the concerns of governments to protect their people from'Delta shares', but this remains unprotected by the most vulnerable people in the world. Countries that have used most of the vaccines supplied in the world by now are unacceptable to use more. "
He added, "We request that additional vaccinations be temporarily suspended until the end of next month so that at least 10% of the population in all countries will complete vaccinations." We called for no additional vaccinations until the end of the month.
The WHO is concerned that more than 80% of the vaccines given so far in the world are given in high-income countries, which are less than half of the world's population, and the gap with developing countries is widening.
