Could coronavirus 'come back to haunt' countries without a push to get the whole world vaccinated?

The World Health Organization says 98 countries have not yet met the target of vaccinating 40% of their populations.

He also wants more funding for fragile healthcare systems, and better distribution of testing equipment and treatments for Covid-19.
