COVID-19 vaccine will be a game changer: WHO

The WHO called the covid vaccine 'unprecedented' and 'potentially landscape-changing'. WHO European director Hans Kluge said on Thursday that Britain had become the first Western country to approve the vaccine. The UK has approved Pfizer's Covid vaccine, which has been developed with Biotech of Germany. With which Britain has surpassed the world in the race to start the most mass vaccination program in history. As soon as it came to know that the supply of vaccines has been very limited earlier. Countries have to decide who is being given priority in the vaccine. However, the WHO also cited the "growing consensus" that older people, medical staff and people with other illnesses should first have a preference for the Covid vaccine, such as those planning for a UK vaccine.

Kluge said the new Covid still has the potential to do "massive damage", but the future looks bright because of the vaccine. Among other vaccine-making companies, Modern and AstraZeneca are also present, giving positive test results. Kluge said that the more candidates we have, the greater the chances of success. The rapid growth of the pandemic is going to be prevented by the development of vaccines in conjunction with public health measures, and economies within reach are about to be rebuilt.

According to the information received, in response to the British approval of Pfizer's fast shot, the EU regulator said that the lengthy process was more suitable and more evidence was needed. Separate approval of the European Union and the US for vaccine may be obtained within a few days or weeks. During this time, a WHO official has given information about various regulatory procedures regarding vaccine. The Global Health Agency and the European Medicine Agency asked the UK to share documents whose use of clearances help speed up other bodies' own assessments.
