The GAVI global vaccines alliance on Friday called on donors for $7.4 billion to help immunize 300 million children against life-threatening diseases between 2021 and 2025, and save up to eight million lives.<\/p>\n

GAVI, which is backed by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the World Health Organization (WHO), donor governments and others, funds immunization programs for poor nations that cannot afford to buy vaccines at rich-world prices.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the past two decades the Vaccine Alliance has helped to protect a generation against some of the world\u2019s deadliest diseases,\u201d GAVI CEO Seth Berkley said in a statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, 1.5 million people are still dying every year from vaccine-preventable diseases … This calls for an urgent response to ensure people continue to be protected against disease, to prevent deadly outbreaks and to help the next generation prosper.\u201d<\/p>\n

The announcement was made in Yokohama, where Japan is hosting a three-day international conference on African development. Democratic Republic of Congo, a mineral-rich central African country, is being hit by the outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
