The World Health Organization has expressed concern about the possibility that criminal groups may exploit the huge global demand, which has not yet been met, for Corona virus vaccines.
The Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, warned - during a press conference in Geneva, reported by the (Russia Today) news channel today / Saturday / - that criminal groups reuse used and empty Corona virus vaccine vials, and sell fake products via the Internet, Especially through the dark net ... Stressing the need for safe disposal of used and empty vaccine vials, or their destruction to prevent their reuse by criminal groups.
He urged all people not to obtain vaccines against this virus outside the vaccination programs run by governments, noting that any vaccine purchased outside of these programs may be substandard or fake, and that it may cause serious damage.
Ghebreyesus pointed out that any damage caused by a fake product does not reflect the safety of the original Coronavirus vaccine, stressing that the World Health Organization is aware of other reports of corruption and the reuse of empty vaccine vials.
He stressed the need to report any suspicious sales of vaccines to the national authorities, who will inform the World Health Organization, explaining that there are only 15 days left before the 100th day, and there are 36 countries that are still waiting for vaccines against the "Corona" virus to start vaccinating health workers and the elderly.
