The number of excess Covid-19 vaccines secured by the United States, the United Kingdom and the European Union could cover the needs of 20 conflict and disaster-stricken countries, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) has said.
The US-based NGO said in a report on Wednesday that the US, UK, and EU had pre-purchased enough Covid-19 doses to vaccinate their populations more than twice over.
