Speaking to the UN’s High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, Secretary General Antonio Guterres stated succinctly: “Pledges of doses and funds are welcome — but they are not enough. We need at least 11 billion doses to vaccinate 70% of the world and end this pandemic.… Everyone, everywhere, must have access to COVID-19 vaccines, tests, treatments and support,” he said.
