The World Health Organization (WHO) said on Thursday that the COVID-19 pandemic has killed one million people worldwide, urging governments to speed up the vaccination of their populations.

“We have passed a tragic milestone a million deaths due to COVID-19 since the beginning of the year,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said at a press conference.

Head of the health agency UN urged all governments to redouble their efforts to vaccinate to all health workers, older people and other particularly vulnerable or vulnerable groups to ensure coverage vaccination 70% for the entire population.

Vaccines in 34 countries

January 2022 WHOUnited Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and its partners created the COVID-19 Vaccine Delivery Alliance to facilitate dose distribution in 34 countries with less than 10% vaccination coverage, of which all but 60 are in Africa.

Tedros he congratulated himself because there were only 10 states left with below 10% coverage, although “much more remains to be done”.

Person responsible for WHO warned that one-third of the world’s population is still unvaccinated, including two-thirds of medical personnel and three-quarters of older people in low-income countries.

According to the agency’s latest statistics, pandemic COVID-19 has caused 6.45 million deaths worldwide since the first cases appeared at the end of 2019 in China.
