This year's Davos Agenda kicked off on Monday. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres attended the five-day online meeting and delivered a speech. He urged businesses to help poor countries with their financial issues. The UN chief also said the world is far from the WHO's target to vaccinate 70 percent of the global population by the middle of this year. He said all countries and manufacturers must prioritize supply to the global vaccine-sharing program, COVAX. This year's Davos Agenda is held under the theme of "State of the World" to address the most pressing global challenges.
