-WHO reports that in the last 24 hours, there have been 106,000 cases reported, the most in a single day since the outbreak began.
The Director General of thehealth agency, Tedros Ghebreyesus, on the organisation’s website said classification of the vaccine as public good for health is in order to bring the pandemic to an end.
“It assigns responsibilities for both the WHO and its member states, and captures the comprehensive whole of government and whole of society approach we have been calling for since the beginning of the outbreak,” he said. “This was critical to the Republic of Korea curtailing the first wave and now quickly identifying and containing new outbreaks,” he said.
