Asserting that the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will be felt for years, the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank have been urged to ensure timely delivery of safe and effective vaccines across all countries. "Timely delivery of safe and effective vaccines across all countries is critical to ending the pandemic, especially as new variants emerge.
