Photo: Reuters At a press conference on the same day, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus affirmed that global inequality in access to vaccines remains one of the biggest risks to efforts to end the pandemic. According to WHO data, high- and middle-income countries that account for 53% of the world’s total population have received 83% of global vaccines. In contrast, low- and middle-income countries that account for 47 percent of the world’s population received only 17 percent of vaccines.

If competition for resources or geopolitical advantage, the virus will prevail,” said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. Previously, on May 7, WHO approved the BBIBP-CorV Covid-19 vaccine developed by China’s Sinopharm pharmaceutical company for use in emergencies. China has decided to provide 10 million doses of Covid-19 vaccine to WHO’s COVAX global vaccine access mechanism, to meet the needs of developing countries.
