The United Nations Secretary General has launched a two billion dollar global humanitarian response plan to fund the fight against COVID-19 in the world’s poorest countries SABCNews

The United Nations Secretary General has launched a two billion dollar global humanitarian response plan to fund the fight againstManaged the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the interagency plan brings together existing appeals from the World Health Organisation and other UN partners to assist nations deemed most vulnerable, with feeble national healthcare system or where conflict has already wreaked havoc.

“Properly funded, it will save many lives and arm humanitarian agencies and NGO’s with laboratory supplies for testing and with medical equipment to treat the sick while protecting healthcare workers. The plan also includes additional measures to support those communities that continue to generously open their homes and towns to refugees and displaced persons. We need to act now to stem the impact of COVID-19 in already vulnerable humanitarian contexts.

“I’ve asked the United Nations coordinators and U.N. country teams to support countries around the world in addressing the socio-economic implications of this pandemic and will require an adequate funding mechanism. But now, now we ask you to support this humanitarian response plan. That is a necessity for global health security. It is a moral imperative and in everyone’s interests. And it is a crucial part of winning this fight. I appeal to governments to give it their full support.
