Coronavirus vaccines are being rolled out in various jurisdictions – including the UK and Russia – but it will take at least an additional two years from now to eradicate the pandemic, according to health experts. Speaking at FIS Digital 2020 Dr Ian Norton, founder and managing director of Respond Global and the former global head of WHO’s Emergency Medical Team Initiative warned the 185-odd asset owner attendees with a collective $11 trillion assets under management that a long road to normal still lies ahead. “We’ve never seen a pandemic end in less than two years,” he said. Now the key challenge lies in the logistical and supply chain challenges of rolling out the vaccine. Moreover, success depends on the vaccine reaching all corners of society, and all countries in the world.
