GENEVA: The World Health Organization has stated that the work is underway on nine coronavirus vaccines under it.
The coronavirus vaccine is expected to arrive later this year, the WHO said. According to the organization, once the vaccine is developed, 2 billion doses will be distributed worldwide next year.
The WHO has drawn up a plan to distribute the coronavirus vaccine, which includes more than 60 stabled countries, but does not include the United States and China. A total of 156 countries are participating in the program.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has claimed that if the coronavirus vaccine is developed soon, many countries will return to normalcy by the end of next year. He said it could take three years to stop the spread of corona worldwide.

Bill Gates has donated $650 million to the world to fight the coronavirus epidemic, the largest amount ever given by an individual. The money will be used to make vaccines and deliver them to poor countries.
“Once the vaccine is ready, then we have to ensure its indiscriminate supply and distributing it to the selected countries alone will not end the epidemic,” he said.
