Geneva, June 25 (RHC)-- All African countries have now developed laboratory capacity to test for the coronavirus, the head of the World Health Organization said. 

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also warned that the pandemic was accelerating.  "The most recent one million cases of COVID-19 were reported in just one week," Tedros Ghebreyesus said during a virtual conference on COVID-19 vaccine development and access across the continent.

The WHO chief added that over 220 vaccine candidates are currently being worked on and urged that a vaccine be "available and developed at an unprecedented scale."
