Revealed! The World Bank’s COVID-19 project will run until March 2025.

Date:

The World Bank, an international financial institution, has strategically planned and scheduled the COVID-19 project to extend until March 2025.

The project has a goal to make sure that everyone, including those in low-income countries, can easily get vaccines. These countries might have difficulties in getting and distributing vaccines. The World Bank aims to support countries in strengthening their vaccine delivery systems, promoting vaccine acceptance, and addressing any logistical or operational hurdles that may hinder the vaccination process.

The decision to extend the project until 2025 reflects the World Bank’s recognition of the prolonged impact of the pandemic on economies, societies, and health systems worldwide.

Everything is going according to “The Plan”. China will be actively building “leisure and recreational facilities” aka COVID concentration camps across the country.

The World Bank shows that COVID-19 is a project that is planned to continue until end of March 2025!

The World Bank document titled “COVID-19 STRATEGIC PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE PROGRAM AND PROPOSED 25 PROJECTS UNDER PHASE 1” was made available to the public on April 2, 2020.

The COVID-19 ‘Project’ Expected Closing Date 31 – March – 2025

Under this program, Phase 1 has been introduced to prioritize the most critical aspects of the p(la)andemic response. The proposed 25 projects aim to address the immediate challenges posed by COVID-19 and pave the way for long-term resilience and preparedness.

The COVID-19 Strategic Preparedness and Response Program is a collaborative effort involving both governmental and non-governmental organizations. International bodies such as the World Health Organization (WHO), United Nations (UN), and World Bank are engaged in providing so-called technical expertise, guidance, and financial support to the program. Additionally, national health departments, research institutes, and philanthropic foundations contribute their resources and capabilities to ensure the success of the program.

Proposed Projects Under Phase 1

The COVID-19 Strategic Preparedness and Response Program comprises 25 planned carefully curated projects under Phase 1. Each planned project aims to address a specific aspect of the p(l)andemic, covering domains such as diagnostics, treatment, vaccines, public awareness, and supply chain management. Let’s take a closer look at a few of these projects:

  1. Project 1: Rapid Diagnostic Testing
    • Develop and deploy rapid diagnostic tests to enhance early detection and containment of the virus.
  2. Project 2: Vaccine Development
    • Accelerate research and development efforts to create a safe and effective vaccine against COVID-19.
  3. Project 3: Healthcare Infrastructure Strengthening
    • Provide necessary resources and support to healthcare facilities, ensuring adequate infrastructure and capacity to handle the surge in cases.
  4. Project 4: Public Awareness Campaigns
    • Launch comprehensive public awareness campaigns to educate communities about preventive measures and dispel misinformation.
  5. Project 5: Telemedicine and Remote Monitoring
    • Implement telemedicine platforms and remote monitoring systems to ensure continued access to healthcare services while minimizing physical contact.
