Only 15 of Africa's 54 nations have fully vaccinated 10 per cent of their populations against Covid-19 and many frontline health workers remain at risk, the World Health Organisation (WHO) and International Council of Nurses (ICN) said.
They called for speeding up distribution of doses to those at risk on the continent amid what the WHO called “opaque delivery plans” and “bottlenecks” in the rollout of vaccines in Africa.
Half of the 52 African countries that have received Covid-19 vaccines have fully vaccinated just 2pc or less of their populations, WHO's regional office in Brazzaville said in a statement.
