Covid-19 vaccinations 'should be accelerated': EU disease control chief

EU member states need to get their vaccination programmes moving at top speed if they are to avert a new wave of Covid-19 infections in the autumn. That's the view of Dr. Andrea Ammon, head of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. Dr. Ammon tells FRANCE 24 that vaccinations are progressing "steadily", with "progress every day". However, with around 46 percent of EU citizens having received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine, she says "it's still not enough of the population".
