The lending agency called Thursday for greater efforts from wealthy nations to boost coronavirus vaccination rates in poorer countries, while also urging the Federal Reserve and other central banks to respond quickly if current inflation pressures prove not to be transitory.

The lending agency issued an updated economic forecast this week that slightly downgraded its forecast for global growth to 5.9% from 6% in July.
