New York: The United Nations warns that at least one new corona variant will emerge every four months. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has said that large-scale corona expansion in Asia should not be considered over.
Governments and pharma companies must work together to bring the vaccine to all peoples of the world. Every human being in the world, not just the people of rich countries, should enjoy the security of the vaccine. Do not assume that the corona epidemic is over. There are still 1.5 million cases every day. A new wave is spreading in Europe. Guterres said many countries are facing the highest death toll since the epidemic was reported.
The Omicron variant gives an indication of the importance of vaccination reaching the maximum number of people. As many developed countries around the world prepare to distribute the second booster dose, it must be remembered that one-third of the total human population is not vaccinated. “This is a reflection of our inequitable society,” he said. Antonio Guterres said it was not a question of whether the new variant would still exist, but the relevant question was when it would occur.
