The World Health Organization hailed the billions of euros raised Monday during a teleconference of world leaders to boost development of a coronavirus vaccine as a strong show of “global solidarity”.
“This was a powerful and inspiring demonstration of global solidarity,” WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told a virtual briefing of the 7.4 billion euros ($8.1 billion) raised to help in the search for a vaccine and also to ensure equitable distribution once one is developed.
