The Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO) has pledged $200,000 for the development of a vaccine for COVID-19, the organization’s Director-General Salim Al-Malik said.
According to him, the organization set such an award to prevent the spread of coronavirus as soon as possible.
The ISESCO urged all states, international organizations, and civil society institutions to tackle the virus.
The new coronavirus outbreak was first recorded in late December 2019 in Wuhan, the most populous city in Central China.
