G7 to offer 1 billion doses of vaccines

Britain says the Group of Seven nations are likely to agree to provide the world with at least 1 billion doses of coronavirus vaccines, as part of the effort to contain the pandemic.

The first in-person G7 summit in around two years will begin on Friday afternoon, local time, in Cornwall, southwest England.

In the lead-up to the summit, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson expressed his intention to call on the leaders to help vaccinate the entire world by the end of next year. He says Britain will donate at least 100 million shots.
