World Bank, African Union agree to accelerate vaccinations
With just one per cent of its 1.1 billion people fully vaccinated, Africa has one of lowest coronavirus vaccinations in the world as compared with the UK and the US, which have fully inoculated about 45 per cent of their people. Most African nations have used all the vaccine doses they received from Covax, the vaccine sharing facility of WHO. To reverse this, the African Union will partner with the World Bank to help accelerate inoculations on the continent. The two organisations will provide resources to the Africa Vaccine Acquisition Task Team (AVATT)
