United Nations chief joined campaigners to criticise the G7 for their vaccine plan.
Antonio Guterres warned that if people in developing countries were not inoculated quickly, the virus could mutate further and become resistant to the new vaccines. He said more is needed to be done.
The G7 countries’ plan to donate 1 billion vaccine doses to poorer countries is far too slow and shows Western leaders are not yet on top of tackling the worst public health crisis in a century, campaigners said on Friday
Guterres stressed on the need for a ‘global vaccination plan’ and to ‘act with a logic, with a sense of urgency, and with the priorities of a war economy’
