Omicron Sayenera Kukhala Chodabwitsa

UN ikadakhululukidwa ponena kuti 'ndinakuwuzani' pomwe zidadziwika mu Novembala kuti mtundu wa COVID-19 womwe ukufalikira mwachangu, womwe umadziwika ndi kalata yachi Greek Omicron, udayambitsa nkhawa, ukuwoneka kuti ukufalikira mwachangu kuposa mtundu waukulu wa Delta.

Koma ngakhale manthawo anali omveka, kubwera kwa Omicron sikunayenera kukhala kodabwitsa, kupatsidwa machenjezo osasinthika ochokera ku UN kuti kusintha kwatsopano kunali kosapeweka, chifukwa cha kulephera kwa mayiko kuwonetsetsa kuti aliyense, osati nzika zolemera zokha. Mayiko, amapatsidwa katemera.

'A catastophic moral failure'

Mu Januwale, António Guterres, Mlembi Wamkulu wa UN, anali akudandaula kale za "vaccinationalism" yodzigonjetsa, ndi mayiko ambiri omwe sakufuna kuyang'ana kupyola malire awo pankhani ya katemera.

Mkulu wa bungwe la World Health Organisation ku Africa, Matshidiso Moeti, adadzudzula "kusunga katemera" komwe, adati, kungatalikitse ndikuchedwetsa kuchira kwa kontinentiyo: "Ndizopanda chilungamo kuti anthu aku Africa omwe ali pachiwopsezo kwambiri amakakamizidwa kudikirira katemera pomwe amachepetsa. -magulu omwe ali pachiwopsezo m'maiko olemera amakhala otetezedwa".

Nthawi yomweyo, WHO idachenjeza mwaulosi kuti ikatenga nthawi yayitali kuti ifalitse kufalikira kwa COVID-19, chiwopsezo chachikulu choti mitundu yatsopano, yosamva katemera, imatuluka, ndipo Tedros adafotokoza kugawa kwa katemera ngati "tsoka lalikulu". kulephera kwa makhalidwe abwino”, akuwonjezera kuti “mtengo wa kulepheraku udzalipidwa ndi miyoyo ndi zopezera moyo m’maiko osauka kwambiri padziko lapansi”.

M'kupita kwa miyezi, WHO idapitilizabe kufalitsa uthenga. Pofika Julayi, ndikuwonekera kwa mtundu wa Delta, womwe udakhala mtundu waukulu wa COVID-19, komanso imfa yowopsa yakufa mamiliyoni anayi chifukwa cha kachilomboka (izi zidakwera mpaka mamiliyoni asanu patangopita miyezi inayi), Tedros adadzudzula. mosalekeza chifukwa chosowa kupanga ndi kugawa katemera moyenera.

COVAX: ntchito yakale kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi

Poyesa kuthandiza omwe ali pachiwopsezo kwambiri, WHO idatsogolera ntchito ya COVAX, yomwe ndi yofulumira kwambiri, yogwirizana kwambiri, komanso yopambana padziko lonse lapansi polimbana ndi matenda.

Mothandizidwa ndi mayiko olemera komanso opereka ndalama zapadera, omwe apeza ndalama zoposa $ 2 biliyoni, COVAX idakhazikitsidwa m'miyezi yoyambirira ya mliriwu, kuwonetsetsa kuti anthu okhala m'maiko osauka asasiyidwe, akatemera opambana atabwera pamsika.

Kutulutsidwa kwa katemera kumayiko omwe akutukuka kumene kudzera mu njira ya COVAX, kudayamba ndi Ghana ndi Côte d'Ivoire m'mwezi wa Marichi, ndipo Yemen, dziko lomwe lili pachiwopsezo chazachuma, lidalandira katemera woyamba mu Marichi, mphindi yomwe akatswiri azaumoyo adafotokoza. monga osintha masewera polimbana ndi COVID-19. Pofika Epulo, magulu a katemera anali atatumizidwa kumayiko opitilira 100 kudzera pa COVAX.

Komabe, vuto la kusagwirizana kwa katemera silinathe kuthetsedwa: WHO idalengeza pa Seputembara 14 kuti katemera wopitilira 5.7 biliyoni adaperekedwa padziko lonse lapansi, koma 2 peresenti yokha idapita kwa anthu aku Africa.

Maphunziro, thanzi labwino, ntchito zoberekera

Kuphatikiza pa kukhudza mwachindunji thanzi la anthu mamiliyoni ambiri padziko lonse lapansi, mliriwu wakhala ndi zotsatirapo zambiri, kuyambira kuchiza matenda, maphunziro ndi thanzi labwino.

Kuzindikira khansa ndi chithandizo, mwachitsanzo, kunasokonezedwa kwambiri pafupifupi theka la mayiko onse; anthu oposa miliyoni imodzi aphonya chisamaliro chofunikira cha chifuwa chachikulu; kuchulukirachulukira kusagwirizana kunalepheretsa anthu a m’mayiko osauka kupeza chithandizo cha AIDS; ndipo ntchito zoberekera zinapititsidwa patsogolo kwa amayi mamiliyoni ambiri.

Mabungwe a UN akukhulupirira kuti, ku South Asia kokha, kusokonekera kwakukulu kwa ntchito zachipatala chifukwa cha mliri wa COVID-19 kutha kupangitsa kuti ana ndi amayi 239,000 amwalira chaka chatha, pomwe ku Yemen, kukulirakulira kwa mliriwu kwadzetsa imfa. tsoka pamene mkazi amamwalira pobereka maola awiri aliwonse.

Vuto lalikulu pa ana

Pankhani ya thanzi la maganizo, chaka chathachi chakhudza kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi, koma chiwerengerochi chakhala cholemera kwambiri kwa ana ndi achinyamata. Bungwe loona za ana la UN (UNICEF) lidawulula m'mwezi wa Marichi kuti ana tsopano akukhala "mkhalidwe watsopano wosokoneza komanso wosokoneza", ndipo kupita patsogolo kwabwerera m'mbuyo pafupifupi paubwana uliwonse.

Ana a m'mayiko omwe akutukuka kumene akhudzidwa kwambiri, ndipo chiwerengero cha umphawi wa ana chawonjezeka ndi pafupifupi 15 peresenti: ana owonjezera 140 miliyoni m'mayikowa akuyembekezeredwanso kukhala m'mabanja omwe ali osauka.

Ponena za maphunziro, zotsatira zake zakhala zowononga kwambiri. Ana asukulu 168 miliyoni padziko lonse adaphonya makalasi pafupifupi chaka chimodzi kuyambira pomwe mliriwu udayamba, ndipo opitilira m'modzi mwa atatu adalephera kuphunzira zakutali, masukulu atatsekedwa.

UNICEF idabwerezanso uthenga wake kuyambira 2020 kuti kutsekedwa kwa sukulu kuyenera kukhala chinthu chomaliza. Mkulu wa bungweli, a Henrietta Fore, adanena mu Januwale kuti "palibe chochita chomwe chiyenera kuchitidwa" kuti ana asapite kusukulu. "Kukhoza kwa ana kuwerenga, kulemba ndi kuchita masamu oyambilira kwasokonekera, ndipo luso lomwe akufunikira kuti achite bwino m'zaka za zana la 21 latsika", adatero.

Mu Ogasiti, kutsatira tchuthi cha Chilimwe, UNICEF ndi WHO adapereka malingaliro oti abwerere bwino mkalasi, zomwe zidaphatikizapo kupanga ogwira ntchito kusukulu kukhala gawo la mapulani adziko lonse a katemera wa coronavirus, komanso katemera wa ana onse azaka 12 ndi kupitilira apo.

COVID-19 osati 'tsoka lokhalokha'

Pamodzi ndikupempha kuti pakhale kufanana kwa katemera mchakachi, UN mobwerezabwereza idalimbikitsa kufunikira kokonzekera njira yatsopano yothanirana ndi miliri yamtsogolo, ponena za kulephera kwapatent kwa kuyankha kwapadziko lonse ku COVID-19.

Misonkhano ingapo idapangidwa ndi WHO, kuphatikiza asayansi ndi opanga mfundo, ndipo mu Meyi, kukhazikitsidwa kwa malo owongolera miliri ku Berlin kudalengezedwa, cholinga chake ndikuwonetsetsa kukonzekera bwino komanso kuwonekera polimbana ndi ziwopsezo zamtsogolo zapadziko lonse lapansi.

Mu Julayi, gulu la G20 lazachuma chachikulu padziko lonse lapansi lidasindikiza lipoti lodziyimira pawokha pakukonzekera miliri, lomwe linanena kuti chitetezo chaumoyo padziko lonse lapansi sichilipidwa mowopsa.

Wapampando wa gululi, wandale waku Singapore, a Tharman Shanmugaratnam, adati COVID-19 silinali tsoka lokhalokha, ndikuti kuchepa kwandalama kumatanthauza kuti "chifukwa chake tili pachiwopsezo cha mliri wautali wa COVID-19, mafunde mobwerezabwereza akukhudza mayiko onse. , ndipo tilinso pachiwopsezo cha miliri yamtsogolo”.

Komabe, chaka chatha bwino pankhani ya mgwirizano wapadziko lonse lapansi: pamsonkhano wapadera wa World Health Assembly wa WHO kumapeto kwa Novembala, maiko adagwirizana kuti apange mgwirizano watsopano wapadziko lonse woletsa miliri.

Mkulu wa WHO Tedros adavomereza kuti ntchito ikadali yolemetsa koma adayamika mgwirizanowo ngati "chifukwa chokondwerera, komanso chiyembekezo, chomwe tifunika".
