新冠疫情或持續(xù)至2022年末

The Covid pandemic will "go on for a year longer than it needs to" because poorer countries are not getting the vaccines they need, the World Health Organization (WHO) says.

世界衛(wèi)生組織稱，由于"貧窮國(guó)家未獲得所需疫苗"，新冠疫情將"不可避免地拖長(zhǎng)一年"。

Dr Bruce Aylward, senior leader at WHO, said it meant the Covid crisis could "easily drag on deep into 2022".

世衛(wèi)組織的高級(jí)官員布魯斯•艾爾沃德博士稱，這意味著新冠危機(jī)很可能"會(huì)持續(xù)至2022年末"。

Less than 5% of Africa's population have been vaccinated, compared to 40% on most other continents.

目前非洲只有不到5%的人口接種了疫苗，而其他大陸的疫苗接種率基本都達(dá)到了40%。

Aylward appealed to wealthy countries to give up their places in the queue for vaccines so that pharmaceutical companies can prioritize the lowest-income countries instead.

The People's Vaccine - an alliance of charities - has released new figures suggesting just one in seven of the doses promised by pharmaceutical companies and wealthy countries are actually reaching their destinations in poorer countries.

慈善機(jī)構(gòu)聯(lián)盟"人民的疫苗"發(fā)布的新數(shù)據(jù)顯示，制藥公司和富裕國(guó)家承諾捐贈(zèng)的疫苗只有七分之一送達(dá)了貧困國(guó)家。

The vast majority of Covid vaccines have been given in high-income or upper middle-income countries.

絕大多數(shù)新冠疫苗都給了高收入或中上收入國(guó)家。

Africa accounts for just 2.6% of doses administered globally.
