Some vaccines against coronavirus will not be able to put the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. This was stated by the Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO) Tedros Adan Gebresus during a briefing, which was broadcast on Youtube.
According to him, the inability of vaccines alone to stop the pandemic is caused by the high infinity of the “Delta” -Stamma coronavirus. “All countries, including developed, are still exposed to high risk of infection with new options, which leads to infection of those who are fully vaccinated, threatens the effectiveness of the means of combating the virus, and increases the likelihood of re-introducing more stringent sanitary measures. “,” said the head of WHO.
Gebriesus stressed that in addition to vaccination to combat COVID-19, it will take to increase the tester rates, track the appearance of new and dangerous strains of the virus, introduce new treatments and continue to follow safety measures, including wearing masks.
Earlier, Greesus raised the capabilities of humanity to defeat the coronavirus pandemic. According to him, the pandemic will end when the world decides to complete it. The head of WHO stressed that the world has “all the necessary tools” for victory over a pandemic, including in the field of public health and medicine. “However, the world did not use these tools well,” said Gebresus.
