Two Corona Vaccines May Come By Early Next Year: WHO
Two corona vaccines may come by early next year: WHO. World Health Organization (WHO) chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan has said that the Covid-19 epidemic underscored the importance of investment in public health and primary health services.
Swaminathan said that we may have at least two vaccines of corona virus available early next year.
Addressing the 15th JRD Tata Smriti Lecture from Geneva, the head scientist of the organization mentioned the impact of Kovid-19 on education, violence against women, etc.
He said, ‘I have known in the last nine-10 months that investment in public health and primary health services is very important. We see examples of countries where investment in primary health services has paid off over the decades.
On the contrary, you have high-income countries, where the situation is quite extreme and they are not able to take any necessary steps.
Also, Swaminathan said that the vaccination for the corona virus may be available early next year. He said, ‘We are working on the vaccine. We hope to have at least two vaccines in the early months of 2021, which can prove to be safe and effective.
We can start using these vaccines in the most vulnerable and high risk populations.
