That falls short of the number of doses recommended by an independent panel set up by the World Health Organization.<\/p>\n<p>In its final report in May, the independent panel recommended that high-income countries redistribute at least one billion doses of Covid vaccines to low- and middle-income countries by Sept. 1, and another one billion doses by mid-2022.<\/p>\n<p>Two of WHO&#x27;s top epidemiologists on Tuesday condemned wealthy nations for hoarding Covid treatments and vaccines. One of them said such actions are prolonging the pandemic. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A study by analytics firm Airfinity showed that rich countries have bought more Covid vaccines than they need. Airfinity projects that the U.S., European Union, the U.K., Canada and Japan will have a surplus of more than 1.2 billion doses in 2021 after inoculating all eligible people and administering booster shots.<\/p>\n<h2>Costs of vaccine inequity<\/h2>\n<p>The WHO has set a target of helping every country to vaccinate at least 10% of its population by the end of this month, before raising that to at least 40% by the end of this year and 70% by the middle of 2022.<\/p>\n<p>But in about 50 countries globally, fewer than 10% of the population has received at least one dose of Covid vaccine \u2014 many of those are in Africa, according to official data collated by online repository Our World in Data.<\/p>\n<p>Africa as a region has vaccinated just 5.5% of the population, the lowest globally, the data showed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Experts, including famed epidemiologist Larry Brilliant, have said that wider vaccination coverage is needed to limit new coronavirus variants and put an end to the global pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond health worries, delays in vaccinating the global population could cost the world economy $2.3 trillion between 2022 and 2025, the Economist Intelligence Unit estimated. Emerging economies will shoulder two-thirds of those costs, said the consultancy.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/09\/09\/covid-us-is-the-worlds-largest-donor-of-vaccines-data-shows.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. is the largest donor of Covid-19 vaccines globally \u2014 way ahead of other major economies such as China, Japan and the U.K., according [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":121169,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
