(Bloomberg) -- Covid-19 can be beaten if 70% of every nation’s population is vaccinated by mid-2022, World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said as he called for a massive global inoculation drive. “The pandemic will end when the world chooses to end it,” he said.
The virus continued its rampage through Asia, as South Korea and Thailand reported record infections and Japan’s top coronavirus adviser said cases in Tokyo could hit a new high in early August, before the end of the Olympics.
