The World Health Organization said yesterday, Monday, that the growing gap between the number of Coronavirus vaccines that have been injected in rich and poor countries, and described inequality as a global "moral outrage", according to Sputnik.

 

The organization specifically referred to the vaccination of young people at "very low risk" of contracting "Covid 19", saying: "Frankly, they are costing the lives of vulnerable people in low-income countries," according to "Agence France-Presse".

 

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization, said it was "shocking" not to make so much effort to avoid a "catastrophic moral failure", so predictable, to ensure a fair distribution of vaccines worldwide. Adding that the gap "is growing every day, and becomes more stranger every day."

 

He continued: “The unfair distribution of vaccines is not just a moral assault, but it defeats itself economically and epidemiologically. Some countries are racing to vaccinate their entire population, while others have none. Rich countries give themselves a false sense of security. ”

 

The head of the United Nations Health Agency said: "The higher the transmission of the virus, the more strains are likely to appear, and the greater the number of those strains that appear, the more likely they will outperform vaccines."

 

And more than 455 million doses of "Covid 19" vaccines were injected in 162 regions around the world - according to statistics by "Agence France-Presse" - about 56% of them were given in high-income countries that represent 16% of the world's population.
