ECB’s Visco Warns That Uneven Vaccination Pace Could Threaten Global Recovery

The irregular pace at which countries are carrying out their vaccination campaigns against COVID-19 poses the biggest threat to a global economic recovery, the European Central Bank Governing Council member and Italian central bank chief Ignazio Visco warned in an interview with the Financial Times.

“We need to maintain close international co-operation within the G20 to avoid that the different stages of the vaccination campaign in the various countries result in excessive divergences of the respective economies,” Visco added, according to Reuters.
