World Bank announces initial package of up to $12 billion to support fight against #covid19. „The COVID-19 support package will make available initial crisis resources of up to $12 billion in financing — $8 billion of which is new — on a fast track basis.“ worldbank.org/en/news/press-…
„will cover range of interventions to strengthen health services and primary health care, bolster disease monitoring and reporting, train front line health workers, encourage community engagement to maintain public trust, and improve access to treatment for the poorest patients.“
„Countries face different levels of risk and vulnerability to COVID-19, and will require different levels of support. The Bank Group support will prioritize the poorest countries and those at high risk with low capacity.“
.@JeremyFarrar says the move „will make a huge difference to the global response to this already immensely challenging epidemic“.
„This is not simply a health crisis - it is a global crisis which is already impacting every sector of society. This commitment from the World Bank is needed if we are to have a chance of averting long-term catastrophe worldwide.“
