The facility is a global alliance of governments, health organisations and role-players in the private sector, promoting the equal delivery of vaccines to all countries. The WHO’s Director-General, Dr Tedros Ghebreyesus says there will be a short-fall of up to 190-million doses to Covax, by the end of June.
