According to the world’s largest vaccine manufacturer, the Serum Institute of India, it will be at least four years before everyone can get vaccinated – in other words, by 2024.
But even if the majority of the world’s population had access to the vaccine, the challenges and dangers are not over.
– I hear all the time that people say that the vaccine will spell the end of the pandemic. But of course it is not so Hans Kluge, WHO leader, tells euronews.
– Difficult times are ahead
At the same time, the World Health Organization warns that the next few months will be crucial and among the most difficult that Europe has experienced.
– Difficult times are ahead. I think the death toll will increase during October and November. But I understand that we are in a situation where countries do not want to hear this news.says Kluge.
Several experts believe that at least two more doses are needed for the COVID-19 vaccine to provide adequate protection. Therefore, twice as many doses as people living on Earth must be produced.
– We don’t know if the vaccine will help everyone
However, as there will likely be uncertainty as to whether the vaccine works for everyone, it will be an open question whether everyone will be protected against the deadly virus.
There have already been signs that vaccines work for some groups but not others.
– We don’t even know if the vaccine will help all population groups. If we have to order different types of vaccines, then it will be a logistical nightmare, warns the WHO expert.
– We must learn to live with it.

But instead of waiting for a vaccine to end all the blockages and demands for measures to prevent infection, the WHO believes humanity itself must take control.
– The end of the pandemic is when now, as a society, we learn to live with it, writes Aftonbladet.
Prime Minister Erna Solberg believes that vaccination against the coronavirus can begin within the next six months. Therefore, ask the Norwegians to persevere and take care of each other.
– If we are lucky, we can start vaccinating during the winter. But it takes time before we have so many vaccinated that it is safe to live our lives the way we want. Until then, we must persevereSolberg said in his speech during the party’s national meeting in Gardermoen last Friday.
Norway is guaranteed three million doses
Norway can obtain around three million doses of vaccines with the agreements that have been made so far. This was stated by the Swedish vaccine coordinator Richard Bergström during the NRK debate last week.
– Norway can buy one percent of the entire EU quota. Sweden can buy two percent. Sweden administers royal resale to NorwayBut it is the entire EU that shows solidarity with Norway, Iceland and Switzerland, Bergström said.
