In the Thursday newspaper, the newspaper reported that Tedros Adhanom Gebregosz, in his joint press conference with Peter Szijjarto, lamented that some countries intend to vaccinate their citizens at the expense of other countries. The director also said that the efficacy of the booster vaccines was in doubt.
As we wrote, at the meeting, the Director-General thanked the Hungarian government for its donation of vaccines and thanked Catalin Kariko for her pioneering work. He also warned that the unfair distribution of vaccines provides a fertile environment for the spread of the virus. Although not included in the MTI report, in this context Gebreesus requested that the administration of the third dose be postponed.
There is still an ongoing debate and no consensus on whether or not booster vaccines are effective. Instead of giving the third vaccine, the focus should be on getting these vaccines in countries where even the first and second vaccines have been given to a small number of people.
Director said.

The Financial Times noted that several countries, such as Israel, the United Kingdom and Hungary, have already started giving third vaccines, while the number of cases is increasing worldwide due to the delta variant.
Gebresos on Monday called on countries not to give third vaccines for two months after several countries, including the United States, announced that they were considering giving booster vaccines.
United States mLast week on Wednesday She saidTo start the third dose in September.
Gebresos said that countries that are at the fore in the production of vaccines must show greater solidarity and ensure the availability of vaccines worldwide.
Seventy-five percent of the 4.8 billion doses administered globally to date have been used in only twelve countries.
I am disappointed. This could be called the vaccine of injustice or the vaccine of nationalism. This is simply tragic
Gebresus said.
