United Nations, July 14 (UNI/Xinhua) UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Wednesday called for immediate action in four areas so that the world can build back better from Covid-19 and further advance sustainable development. The first area is recovery from the pandemic in every country, he said. "We must ensure equitable global access to Covid-19 vaccines, therapies and tests. And now it is very important to have a serious effort to increase the number of countries that can produce vaccines, diagnostics, and other else technologies thinking about the future," he told the opening of the ministerial segment of the High-level Political Forum on sustainable development, convened under the auspices of the UN Economic and Social Council. Governments must work together with the pharmaceutical industry and other stakeholders to share licenses and to provide technical and financial support to allow many other countries to produce vaccines and other important medical products. There is also a need to make sure future outbreaks of disease are better managed by strengthening health systems and ensuring universal health coverage, he said.
