Significance
The calls follow similar warnings from the Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO), which said last month that low vaccination coverage was hindering efforts to stem the pandemic.
Impacts
Low vaccination rates will contribute to ongoing business disruptions as workers call in sick due to illness and isolation requirements.
New investment may target areas of higher vaccination to reduce workforce-related disruption.
Disposal of expired vaccines due to low uptake may discourage further donations of doses.
