Sharjah24 – AFP: On the eve of the G7 summit in Cornwall, southwest England, President Joe Biden calls a US donation of 500 million Covid vaccine doses to poorer countries a "historic step" in the fight against the global pandemic.
Joe Biden, President of the United States said, "The United States will purchase a half a billion doses of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine to donate to nearly 100 nations that are in dire need, in the fight against this pandemic. That's a historic step, the largest single purchase and donation of COVID-19 vaccines, by any single country ever." He added, "In addition, I'd like to point out that the greet from the British government has been exemplary, we've got a good first full day here in the UK, Prime Minister Johnson and I had a very productive meeting, we discharged and discussed a broad range of issues on which the United Kingdom and United States are working in very close cooperation."
