The previous UK prime minister has referred to as for richer international locations to right away airlift hundreds of thousands of surplus Covid vaccines to much less developed nations.
Gordon Brown informed BBC Breakfast that the danger from new mutations in international locations that do not have entry to vaccines implies that “no person is protected anyplace, till everyone seems to be vaccinated in every single place”.
Mr Brown has organised a letter, signed by 160 former world leaders and world figures, calling for the excess doses to not be wasted as 1000’s die with the virus every day.
It’s addressed to Italian PM Mario Draghi, who’s internet hosting the G20 group of main economies in Rome this weekend.
